Maruyama Kofun (丸山古墳) is a Kofun period burial mound, located in the Mise-chō, Gojōnō-chō, and Oikaru-chōo neighborhoods of the city of Kashihara, Nara in the Kansai region of Japan. The tumulus was designated a National Historic Site of Japan in 1969 with the area under protection expanded in 1983; however, the posterior circular portion of the tumulus is under the direct control of the Imperial Household Agency as a possible imperial tomb.
