Die Römervilla von Bad Neuenahr-Ahrweiler am Silberberg ist ein archäologischer Fundplatz, der eine jahrhundertelange wechselnde Nutzung von der Mitte des ersten nachchristlichen Jahrhunderts bis ins Frühmittelalter dokumentiert. Das ergrabene Areal befindet sich am Rand der rheinland-pfälzischen Stadt Bad Neuenahr-Ahrweiler im Landkreis Ahrweiler.
Zunächst als römischer Gutshof (Villa rustica) angelegt, vergrößert und mehrfach umgebaut, wurde die Anlage gegen 259/60 n. Chr. planmäßig geräumt. In der Spätantike erfuhr das Hauptgebäude eine Umnutzung zur Herberge (Mansio),in die anschließend eine Eisenschmelze einzog.Nach dem völligen Verfall und der Bedeckung des Geländes mit Schutt und Geröll durch den direkt dahinterliegenden Silberberg entstand an diesem Platz ein frühmittelalterlicher christlicher Friedhof. Die besondere Bedeutung des ergrabenen und für die Öffentlichkeit konservierten Hauptgebäudes liegt in dem hervorragenden Erhaltungszustand vieler seltener Baudetails.
