Edzná is a ruined city of the Maya civilization in the state of Campeche, Mexico. Edzná is in the north of the state, 53 km south-east of Campeche.

The most remarkable building at the plaza is the main temple. Built on a platform of 40 meters high, it provides a wide overview of the surroundings.

Edzná was already inhabited in 400 BC, and was it abandoned round 1500 AD. In the Late-Classis period Edzná was part of the Calakmul polity.

The site is open for tourist visits.
