The Abri Villepin is an Upper Palaeolithic site in the commune of Tursac in the Dordogne department in northeastern France. It contains finds from the Magdalenian and Azilian periods.

Absolute age dates for the Abri Villepin are not available, but the finds clearly come from the Magdalenian VI and the Azilian, therefore corresponding approximately to the time interval 12,500 to 10,000 years BP.
