Samern is a community in the district of Grafschaft Bentheim in Lower Saxony, Germany.

Samern lies between Nordhorn and Steinfurt on the boundary with North Rhine-Westphalia. The community belongs to the Joint Community (Samtgemeinde) of Schüttorf whose administrative seat is in the like-named town.

The Mansbrügge watchtower, or in the local speech the Piggetörnken, was once, according to local lore, a mint belonging to a count in the 14th century. Newer findings, however, show that this building was only ever used as a customs post.

Samern has a sport club, SV Suddendorf-Samern 1959 e.V.

The Autobahn A 31 runs directly through the community of Samern.
