Mount Venus is a sacred megalithic site in Edmondstown, County Dublin, Ireland on the Mount Venus Road. It is a national heritage site.
It has been described by Borlase as one of the most magnificent in the world. It encompasses a massive cap stone weighing in at 44 tons. It is partly collapsed on its supports and overgrown, and it has been suggested that this was a result of the 1755 Lisbon earthquake, as well as the 1690 Caernarfon earthquake. The capstone lies against a single large upright megalith.
