We have carried out an accurate determination of the quadrupole moment of the deuteron nucleus. The evaluation of the constant is achieved by combining high accuracy Born-Oppenheimer calculations of the electric field gradient at the nucleus in the H{sub 2} molecule with spectroscopic measurements of the quadrupolar splitting in D{sub 2} and HD. The derived value is Q=0.285783(30) fm{sup 2}.
