Vendresse-Beaulne (French pronunciation: [vɑ̃dʁɛs bo(l)n]) is a commune in the Aisne department in Hauts-de-France in northern France.

It was established in 1923, combining the commune of Beaulne-et-Chivy with the neighboring commune of Vendresse-et-Troyon.[3]

The town has a British military cemetery established in 1920, which originated from several temporary cemeteries. This cemetery is located 500m northeast of the village, on the D967, in the direction of Cerny-en-Laonnois. 702 fallen soldiers are commemorated, including 375 unidentified soldiers.
