The Grotte de l'Hyène (official name), often mistakenly called Grotte de la Hyena, is one of the cavities of the Arcy-sur-Cure cave site in the French department of Yonne, Bourgogne-Franche-Comté (formerly in the Burgundy region).

The site delivered the oldest known remains to Arcy, described by Leroi-Gourhan as "pre-Neanderthal".
