Albepierre-Bredons is a commune in the departement of Cantal and Auvergne region of south-central France. The inhabitants of the commune are known as Arapiroux.

Albepierre-Bredons is some 100 km south by south-west of Clermont-Ferrand and about 20 km north-west of Saint-Flour. It can be accessed by district road D39 coming south-west from Murat and continuing south-west by a circuitous route to Saint-Martin-sous-Vigouroux. District road D239 also starts from the town and heads north-east to join the D16 road north of Laveissenet.

The commune of Bredons was established in the 1790s by the merger of the former communes of Bredon and Albepierre. In 1836 part of its territory was detached to form the new commune Laveissière. The commune of Bredons was renamed Albepierre-Bredons in 1955.
