Findern is a small village and civil parish in South Derbyshire, Derbyshire, England, lying a few miles south‑west of the city of Derby. Set amid gentle farmland and hedgerows, it has historic roots stretching back centuries and a mix of stone cottages and later housing that gives the village a pleasant, varied character.

Today Findern is largely a residential and agricultural community with a village hall, primary school and local pub supporting an active social life; many residents commute to Derby or nearby towns while small-scale farming and local businesses continue to shape the local economy. Conservation of the surrounding countryside and regular village events help keep a strong community feel despite its easy access to larger urban centres.
