Uisnech (modern spelling Uisneach) is a hill and old ceremonial site in Westmeath, central Ireland. The hill is 182 m tall, while the archaeological traces and earthworks centered on it spread over two square km. It has been tentatively identified with the Raiba in the geography of Roman author Claudius Ptolemaeaus. In the early Middle Ages, Uisnech was the ceremonial center of a line of kings of Mide (Meath).
