Wiggenhall St. Germans is a small village and civil parish in the district of King's Lynn and West Norfolk, in the county of Norfolk, England. It sits in the low-lying Fenland a few miles south‑east of King's Lynn, close to the River Great Ouse, and is set in the characteristic flat, drained marshes of the region.
The village retains a quiet, rural character rooted in arable farming and the drainage networks that shaped the local economy, with many residents commuting into King's Lynn for work. A medieval parish church dedicated to St Germanus and the surrounding fenland wildlife are local highlights, while the landscape of ditches, drains and pumping stations gives a strong sense of the area's historic relationship with water management.
