Pandivere is a village in Väike-Maarja Parish, Lääne-Viru County, in northeastern Estonia. It has a population of 101 (as of 1 January 2011).[1]

The surrounding upland Pandivere Heights (Pandivere kõrgustik) is named after the village.[2]

Pandivere Manor (German: Pantifer) was established in 1801 by detaching it from the nearby Kärsa Manor. It belonged to the Rennenkampffs. Nowadays, since a fire in the 1980s, the single-storey main building lies in ruins.[3]

Poet and writer Jakob Liiv worked as a schoolteacher in Pandivere from 1884 to 1886.[2]
