Ludwig is a small lunar impact crater that is located just beyond the eastern limb of the Moon, placing it on the far side from the Earth. It lies just to the east of the much larger Hirayama crater, and to the north of the Ganskiy crater.

The rim of this crater is worn, and is somewhat lower in the northern half. The inner walls are uneven slopes that lead down to the interior floor. Three small craters lie on the floor, with a joined pair located to the north of the mid-point and the other along the southwest inner wall. The floor is otherwise relatively level and featureless.
