Gimnée (Walloon: Djimnêye) is a village in Wallonia and a district of the municipality of Doische, located in the province of Namur, Belgium.

The settlement is traceable back to a Roman villa which was founded here during Gallo-Roman times. In the Middle Ages, it was part of the holdings of the lords of Hierges. The current village church dates from 1770.
