Forest Mall is an enclosed shopping mall in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. Opened in 1973, it is anchored by Younkers, Kohl's, and Staples.

Melvin Simon & Associates, now known as Simon Property Group, first announced plans for Forest Mall in 1964. The mall opened in 1973, featuring Montgomery Ward, J. C. Penney, H. C. Prange Co., Prange Way, and G. C. Murphy. Of these stores, Montgomery Ward, J. C. Penney, and Prange had relocated from downtown Fond du Lac. The Montgomery Ward space was later taken over by Kohl's, the Prange Way space by Sears, and Prange's became Younkers.

Simon renovated the mall in 1998, adding skylights and new flooring. In 2006, several new stores opened at the mall, although most were local retailers.

In May 2014, JCPenney closed, the last of the original anchors in the mall. The Sears store closed November 2 of the same year, as did the Forest Mall Cinema.

In 2014, Simon Property Group spun off its underperforming malls, including Forest Mall, into an investment group known as WP Glimcher. In early 2016, Simon's investment group officially sold the mall to a Dallas-based investment group known as ATR Corinth Partners. Simon had developed the mall and owned it for more than 40 years.
