El Ombú is a Mennonite agricultural settlement in Río Negro Department, Uruguay. It is located 284 km NW of Montevideo and 29 km SE of Young, near the Route 3..[1]

Established in 1950 by Vistula delta Mennonites who came from West Prussia, Danzig and Poland, it was the first Mennonite settlement on Uruguayan territory.[2] It takes its name from the most popular native tree in Uruguay, ombú (Phytolacca dioica).

Previously the area had a German school, Deutsche Schule El-Ombu.[3]
