The Our (pronunciation [u:r]; archaic German: Ur) is a river of Belgium, Luxembourg and Germany. It is a left tributary to the river Sauer/Sûre. Its total length is 78 km.
The source of the Our is in the Hautes Fagnes in south-eastern Belgium, near Manderfeld.

The Our flows into the Sauer in Wallendorf.
