Piirissaare airfield (ICAO: EEPR) was a small airfield on the border island of Piirissaare in southeast Estonia.
The airfield was little more than a grass airstrip and operated mainly during the Soviet occupation of Estonia. It served a small air service of five flights a week.
The air service ended with the independence of Estonia in 1991. Although the island's airfield did receive an ICAO code, the airfield has been closed since the 1990s.
