The Needle of Ryswick or Rijswijk (Dutch: Naald van Rijswijk) is an obelisk that commemorates the Treaty of Rijswijk (September 1697) in Rijswijk, Netherlands.
The monument is built at the location of the Huis ter Nieuwburg. The peace treaty was signed. The obelisk was built from 1792 to 1794 out of building materials of Huis ter Nieuwburg. The palace was demolished in 1790 due to continued neglect of the building.
