Bad Zwischenahn is a town on the bank of the Zwischenahner Meer, in Lower Saxony, Germany. The town is in the district of Ammerland, about 15 km to the northwest of Oldenburg and 70 km south of the North Sea coast.

Bad Zwischenahn gained notoriety as the airbase of the Luftwaffe during the Second World War. As a result, it was severely devastated by Allied bombing. The town has been entirely rebuilt and is today a popular domestic tourist destination.

Perhaps the most popular attraction is the farm museum which exhibits a windmill as well as period farm houses of the 19th century. Smoked eels are a local delicacy here.
