As of the 2008 Games, Ireland has won 20 medals (8 gold, 6 silver, 6 bronze).

Ireland first competed in the Olympics as an independent nation in 1920. Prior to that athletes from Ireland competed with the team from Great Britain. The first athlete to win a medal for Ireland was Pat O'Callaghan who won gold in the hammer throw at the 1928 Games in Amsterdam.
