The Stignabben is a nunatak in Queen Maud Land in East Antarctica . In the Kirwanveggen of Maudheimvidda it rises 5 km northeast of the Hallgrenskarvet .
Norwegian cartographers named the mountain and mapped it using surveys and aerial photographs of the Norwegian-British-Swedish Antarctic Expedition (1949–1952) and aerial photographs of the Third Norwegian Antarctic Expedition (1956–1960). It is named after Stig Eugen Hallgren (1925–2014), photographer of the Norwegian-British-Swedish Antarctic Expedition.
