A Dáil by-election was held in the constituency of Dublin South-West in Ireland on Wednesday, 14 November 1956, to fill a vacancy in the 15th Dáil. It followed the death of Fine Gael Teachta Dála (TD) Peadar Doyle on 4 August 1956.
The writ of election to fill the vacancy was agreed by the Dáil on 25 October 1956.
The by-election was won by the Fianna Fáil candidate Noel Lemass.
It was held on the same day as the 1956 Carlow–Kilkenny by-election. Both by-elections were won by Fianna Fáil candidates.
