Vosseveld is an unofficial hamlet in the municipality of Winterswijk, located in the Gelderse Achterhoek, in the Netherlands. The hamlet is indicated with official signs with that name. The hamlet used to be part of the no longer existing hamlet of Oostdorp Buurt.

The Winterswijk Stone Quarry is located on the edge of the hamlet. Limestone is extracted here in open-pit mining by the Sibelco company. In recent years, a temporary theatre has been set up in the quarry during the holiday period: the Steengraventheater. A festival site with a stage, stands, catering facilities and tents will be built at the bottom of the 30-metre deep quarry.
