SUPPLEMENT TO 
FIDELITY'S TAX-FREE
BOND FUNDS
PROSPECTUS
DATED FEBRUARY 17, 1994
   SHAREHOLDER MEETING On     
   December 14, 1994, a meeting     
   of the shareholders of Fidelity     
   Limited Term Municipals will be     
   held to approve a revision to     
   the fund's management     
   contract, changes to the fund's     
   objective, maturity policy, and     
   diversification limit, and other     
   matters related to the fund's     
   management.    
   If shareholders approve the     
   proposed management     
   contract for Limited Term     
   Municipals, the individual fund     
   fee rate, a component of the     
   management fee, will be     
   reduced from .15% to .10% of     
   the fund's average net assets,     
   resulting in a net decrease of     
   .05%. The decrease was     
   voluntarily adopted by FMR on     
   July 1, 1993.    
   If shareholders approve the     
   proposal to amend Limited     
   Term Municipals' investment     
   objective, the fund's current     
   objective as stated in the     
   sections entitled "Investment     
   Principles" and "Fundamental     
   Investment Policies and     
   Restrictions" on pages 26 and     
   31, respectively, will be     
   replaced with the following:    
   "The fund seeks the highest     
   level of income exempt from     
   federal income tax that can be     
   obtained, consistent with the     
   preservation of capital, from a     
   diversified portfolio of     
   investment-grade obligations."    
   In addition, Limited Term     
   Municipals' fundamental     
   maturity policy will be replaced     
   with the following     
   non-fundamental maturity     
   policy:    
   "The fund will maintain a     
   dollar-weighted average     
   maturity of 12 years or less."    
   If shareholders approve the     
   proposal to amend Limited     
   Term Municipals' fundamental     
   diversification limit, the fund's     
   current diversification limit as     
   stated in the paragraph     
   regarding diversification     
   restrictions on page 30 and in     
   the section entitled     
   "Fundamental Investment     
   Policies and Restrictions" on     
   page 31 will be replaced with     
   the following:    
   "The fund may not with respect     
   to 75% of the fund's total     
   assets, purchase the securities     
   of any issuer (other than     
   securities issued or guaranteed     
   by the U.S. government or any     
   of its agencies or     
   instrumentalities) if, as a result,     
   (a) more than 5% of the fund's     
   total assets would be invested     
   in the securities of that issuer,     
   or (b) the fund would hold more     
   than 10% of the outstanding     
   voting securities of that issuer."

The following information 
replaces the second paragraph 
on page 19:
The interest from some 
municipal securities is subject 
to the federal alternative 
minimum tax. Limited Term 
Municipals does not currently

securities. Aggressive Tax-Free 
may invest up to 20% of its 
assets in these securities. High 
Yield Tax-Free may invest so 
that 20% of its income comes 
from these securities. 
Individuals who are subject to 
the tax must report this interest 
on their tax returns.
The following information 
supplements the second 
paragraph under the heading 
"INVESTMENT PRINCIPLES" on 
page 26:
If you are subject to the federal 
alternative minimum tax, you 
should note that up to 20% of 
High Yield Tax-Free's income 
may come from investments in 
municipal securities issued to 
finance private activities. The 
interest from these investments 
is a tax-preference item for 
purposes of the tax.
The following information 
supplements the "Minimum 
Investments" table on page 12.
These minimums for Limited 
Term Municipals may vary for a 
Fidelity Payroll Deduction 
Program account in the fund.
