Andoy (French pronunciation: [ɑ̃dwa]) is a village of the city of Namur located in the province of Namur, Wallonia, Belgium. Andoy was a separate municipality for a short time, between 1795 and 1808, until it was merged to Wierde.[1] On 1 January 1977, Wierde was merged into Namur.[2]

The late 19th-century Fort d'Andoy is located here.[3]
