Ennigerloh is a town in the district of Warendorf, in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. It is situated approximately 25 km northeast of Hamm and 30 km southeast of Münster.

The town, located in an agricultural area and with a well-preserved medieval quarter, became more industrial in the 20th century as several cement factories were installed. Some of these closed towards the end of the century. Furniture manufacturing was also a significant industry.
