Saint Martin of Vienne was the third bishop of Vienne, in France. He lived in the 2nd century. He is venerated as a saint by the Roman Catholic Church and the Orthodox Church, with a feast day celebrated locally in Vienne on July 1.

A district and a bridge in the old town of Vienne are named after him, as is the town of Saint-Martin-l'Ars, in the department of Vienne.[1]
