The astrophysical site of the r-process nucleosynthesis is not yet identified, but the neutrino-driven wind in a core-collapse supernova is one of the leading candidates. Neutrino interactions play a crucial role in such supernovae. Neutrino fluxes control the neutron-to-proton ratio in the high-entropy hot bubble which is where r-process nucleosynthesis is thought to take place. In this talk our current understanding of the role of neutrinos in core-collapse supernovae and the associated r-process nucleosynthesis will be reviewed.
