Nemirseta () is a district of the Lithuanian seaside resort Palanga, located on the Baltic coast north of Klaipėda. The place, which consists mainly of two deserted buildings which were formerly an inn and customs house, is notable for having marked for about five centuries the northernmost point of Prussia (i.e. the Province of East Prussia) and the northeastern tip of the German Empire from 1871 to 1920.
==Etymology== Its name in German is the term for "yellow-billed stork", although etymologically it is a corruption of the Old Curonian toponym Nimersata denoting marshy land (nemiršele).
