Simeon Stylites atau Symeon the Stylite ( , Yunani Koine  ,  ) (s. 390? – 2 September 459) adalah seorang santo asketis Suriah yang meraih ketenaran karena hidup 37 tahun pada sebuah platform kecil di atas sebuah pilar dekat Aleppo (sekarang Suriah). Beberapa stylite lainnya kemudian mengikuti modenya (kata Yunani style artinya "pilar"). Ia juga dikenal sebagai Simeon Stylites the Elder untuk membedakannya dari Simeon Stylites the Younger, Simeon Stylites III, dan Symeon Stylites dari Lesbos.
