thumb|280px|Church of Ireland Parish Church Rathmichael () is a suburb on the southside of Dublin, in the local government area of Dún Laoghaire–Rathdown, near the southern border of County Dublin with County Wicklow. It is situated west of Shankill from which it is, roughly, separated by the M50/M11 motorways. It is also a civil parish in the barony of Rathdown.
==Etymology== The modern Irish name Ráth Mhichíl appears to be derived from an English corruption. Thus, Rathmichael is likely to have come from Ráth Mhic Táil, meaning "Mac Táil's Ringfort".
