The Emme (German pronunciation: [ˈɛmə]) is a river in Switzerland.

It rises in the Alps between the peaks of Hohgant and Augstmatthorn in the canton of Bern.

The Emme is 80 kilometres (50 miles) long and flows through the Emmental and between Zuchwil and Luterbach into the Aare.

The narration Die Wassernot im Emmental (The Water Crisis in the Emmen Valley) by Jeremias Gotthelf impressively describes a very large and destructive, and therefore well-known, flood which occurred August 13, 1837.

This and other floods led to the building of numerous canals and dams in the 19th century.
