The '''Collegiata di San Martino''' is a [[Renaissance architecture|Renaissance]]-style, [[Roman Catholic]] [[collegiate church]] in the center of [[Sinalunga]], [[province of Siena]], region of [[Tuscany]], Italy. It is now part of the Diocese of Montepulciano-Chiusi-Pienza.
Located in a town hotly contested by Siena and Florence prior to the 16th century, the town's castle was razed after Florence defeated the Sienese forces during the [[Italian War of 1551–1559]]. The stones were reused to build the Collegiata in 1588.
