Nagatsuka Kofun is a keyhole-shaped burial mound located in Numazu, Shizuoka, in Japan's Tōkai region. Built in the early 6th century during the mid-Kofun period, it exemplifies the zenpō-kōen-fun architectural style—the distinctive Japanese tumulus form combining a rectangular forward section with a circular rear chamber. The mound was designated a Shizuoka Prefecture Historic Site in 1999.
