El Khandaq is a town in northern Sudan on the River Nile.
It is the site of an important fortress with beginnings dating to the Christian Period. During the 19th Century (Turkiyya) the town expanded much beyond the fortress to become one of the places with something like urban institutions in Northern Sudan, although it is now largely depopulated.
