Bergman is a small lunar impact crater that is located on the far side of the Moon. It is located on the interior floor of the Mendeleev walled-plain, and is attached to the edge of the inner wall to the northwest. On the same walled basin is Moissan crater to the south and Richards crater to the west. The rim of Bergman crater is roughly circular, and the formation is generally bowl-shaped. The western half of the interior floor is covered with a slope of scree, leaving a small level floor on the eastern side.
