Altdorf is the fictional capital city of the human nation called the Empire in the Warhammer Fantasy universe. It is the capital of the Reikland province of the Empire.

The city is constructed on seven large and many small islands in the River Reik, in the southwest of the Empire. In terms of its culture, architecture, layout, governance and populace, it is strongly reminiscent of several of the larger cities of Renaissance Europe.

Altdorf is the seat of the government and a spiritual center of the Empire as well as being home to many important institutions, including the Altdorf University, the College of Engineers and the Colleges of Magic.

Altdorf is built more or less on the site of Reikdorf, a walled village built by the "Unberogen" tribe. From this tribe Sigmar rose to be a powerful leader who united the tribes and founded the Empire as "Sigmar Heldenhammer the First".
