The Oldenburger Münsterland is the southern, predominantly Catholic portion of the former Grand Duchy of Oldenburg, now a part of Lower Saxony in Germany. It comprises the modern day counties of Cloppenburg and Vechta, an area with over 600 years of shared history and tradition. Still primarily defined by its agriculture, the area claims the hightest density of poultry, pork and beef farming within Germany.

Economically, Oldenburger Münsterland has a relatively low level of unemployment for Lower Saxony.
