The Ullmann Point is a headland in Admiralty Bay on King George Iceland in the archipelago of the South Shetland Islands . It is located on the north bank of Martel Inlet at the southwest end of the Ullmann Spur .
Participants of the Fifth French Antarctic Expedition (1908-1910) led by Jean-Baptiste Charcot mapped them. Scientists from the British Discovery Investigations named it during measurements in 1927 based on the name of the Ullmann Spur. Its namesake is probably a sponsor for Charcot's research trip.
