The magnetic structure of NpRhGa$$_5$$ has been investigated by neutron scattering. NpRhGa$$_5$$ exhibits two antiferromagnetic phases with transition temperatures at T$$_{N1}$$ = 36 K and T$$_{N2}$$ = 33 K. Neutron scattering experiments revealed an antiferromagnetic structure with propagation vector q = (0 0 1/2) for both, where the Np magnetic moments are oriented parallel to the c-axis for T$$_{N2}$$ $$<$$ T $$<$$ T$$_{N1}$$ and parallel to the [110] direction on basal plane for T $$<$$ T$$_{N2}$$. At T$$_{N2}$$ the reorientation of magnetic moments is accompanied by a sudden increase of magnetic moments, indicative of the first order transition. The magnetic form factor revealed a dominant contribution of the orbital moments.
