望衡亭,是中国湖南省湘潭市的一处旅游景点,位于老城区。

1932年修建于突兀于湘江回环处的壶山之上,根据相传东晋名将陶侃曾在该处建的“望岳”亭之义而取名“望衡亭”,亭上书有对联:“地维天柱此孤石。岳色江声萃一亭。”

该亭所在的壶山因形似壶而得名,也因为陶侃在此驻军而称“陶公山”,当地人也称为“石嘴垴”。山下有石高数十丈,为陶公的钓鱼石,名锦石或马蹄石。望岳,钓鱼二亭就建于石上。唐时此处则有湘江亭,李群玉郑谷和孟冰于皆有诗。韦迢曾在此以“湘江一夜黄”与杜甫相对和,故后也曾称作“黄叶亭”。时则有观湘楼,但后来均塌毁。1928年湘潭城街道拓建,举事者倡议重建该亭以作纪念。4年后即1932年才告建成。为求坚固,以花岗石垒成。

亭周边还有陶侃何腾蛟衣冠冢
