The Munzingen culture is a Neolithic archaeological culture of the Jungneolithikum (Late Neolithic) distributed across Alsace and the Upper Rhine region from around 4000 to 3500 BC, extending from the Sundgau in the south to the Kraichgau in the north. It was defined in 1968 by Jens Lüning on the basis of ceramics from the type site of Munzingen-Tuniberg, as a derivative of the Michelsberg culture.
