Maruyama Kofun is a keyhole-shaped burial mound located in the Jizodō neighborhood of Kaizuka, Osaka, in Japan's Kansai region. Dating to the Kofun period, it exemplifies the zenpō-kōen-fun architectural style characteristic of large-scale tumuli from that era. The mound was designated a National Historic Site of Japan in 1956 and is also known as Jizo-dō Maruyama Kofun.
