The possibility of experimentally observing the gravitational interaction of the neutron with a macroscopic body is discussed. It is shown that the sensitivity of neutron-optics experiments may be one to two orders of magnitude higher than that which is necessary for observing the gravitational effect. Either the deflection of the neutron trajectory in the gravitational field of a heavy attractor or the gravitation-induced shift of the neutron-wave phase can be recorded experimentally.
