Braurone (in greco antico: Βραυρών, Braurón, in greco moderno: Βραυρώνα) era una località della costa orientale dell'Attica, tra Stiria ed Ale Arafenide, che ospitava un importante santuario di Artemide, in onore della quale si teneva ogni anno una festa. Il santuario era composto da un tempietto di Artemide, un ponte unico in pietra, santuari rupestri, una fonte sacra e una stoà a forma di pi greco (Π) con stanze per i banchetti rituali.
