Vigmostad is a village in Lindesnes municipality in Vest-Agder county, Norway. The village is located along the Audna river in the Audnedalen valley. The village of Konsmo lies about 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) to the north and about 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) north of the village of Vigeland. Vigmostad Church is located in the village.

The village (and the parish) is named after the old Vigmostad farm (Old Norse: Vígmundarstaðir), since that is the location of Vigmostad Church. The first element of the name is the old male name Vígmundar (river-mouth) or Vígmarr (river-mare(sea)) and the last element is staðir which means "homestead" or "farm".
