Julienne is a tiny lunar crater that is located in the irregular terrain to the south and slightly to the east of the prominent Archimedes crater.
This is a circular, cup-shaped feature with an even smaller crater near the eastern rim. The surface about this crater is marked by ray material from the Autolycus crater to the northeast. There are narrow clefts in the surface to the north and south of Julienne crater, and a hilly region to the west.
