Ymerbrønden er en skulptur fra 1912 af den danske billedhugger Kai Nielsen.
Skulpturen forestiller en nøgen Ymer fra den nordiske mytologi der drikker mælk fra ved koen Audhumbla. Koen slikker på en saltsten fra hvilken drengen Bure skabes. Skulpturen, med den nøgne mand, skabte ved indvielsen enorm debat.
Ved Faaborg Museums 100-års jubilæum udgav Flemming Brandrup bogen "Fejden om Ymerbrønden" om datidens debat.
