Mevo Horon (Hebrew: מְבוֹא חוֹרוֹן‎‎, lit. Horon Gateway) is an Israeli settlement and religious moshav shitufi and Israeli settlement in the West Bank. Located near Latrun and Modi'in, it falls under the jurisdiction of Mateh Binyamin Regional Council. In 2007 it had a population of 1,200. The international community considers Israeli settlements in the West Bank illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this.[1]

The village was established in 1970 by members of the Ezra youth movement, and was the first village in the Mateh Binyamin council area.
