The Ōzuka Kofun is a decorated burial mound dating to around 600 CE, located in Keisen, Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan. Built in the zenpō-kōen-fun style—characterized by a keyhole-shaped plan with a circular mound joined to a rectangular platform—this kofun represents the monumental funerary architecture of the Kofun period. The mound was designated a National Historic Site in 1937 and subsequently elevated to Special National Historic Site status in 1956, reflecting its significance to Japanese archaeological heritage.
