Hephaistos (Yunani: Ἥφαιστος, translit. Hḗphaistos, sebutan Attika: /hɛ̌ː.pʰai̯s.tos/; bahasa Inggeris: Hephaestus) ialah dewa pertukangan, tukang besi, tukang kayu, api, metalurgi, kerja logam, arca dan gunung berapi yang dipuja masyarakat Yunani Purba.[1] Dia diceritakan anak kepada Zeus dan Hera, tetapi dalam sesetengah penceritaan dia dilahirkan oleh Hera dan tidak berbapa. Dia dibuang dari Gunung Olympus sama ada ibunya Hera kerana kakinya yang cacat tempang sejak lahir; ataupun oleh Zeus kerana melindungi Hera daripada godaan Zeus (dan tempang Hephaistos adalah akibat kejatuhan dia).[2][3][4]
