PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
 
 
DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although stocks have managed to post solid returns through the first six
months of 1996, signs of strength in the economy have led to inflation
fears, causing some uncertainty in bond markets so far this year. In 1995,
both stock and bond markets posted strong results, while the year before,
stocks posted below-average returns and bonds had one of the worst years in
history.
These market ups and downs are a normal part of investing, and there are
some basic principles that are helpful for investors to remember in
different types of markets.
Keeping in mind that the effects of interest rate changes on your bond
investments will only be "paper" gains or losses unless you sell your
shares, staying in your bond fund may be appropriate if your investment
horizon is at least a year or more. The longer your investing time frame,
the more likely it is that you will retain your principal investment
through both up and down markets. For example, a 10-year time frame, such
as saving for a college education, enables you to weather these ups and
downs in a long-term fund, which has higher potential returns. An
intermediate-length fund could be appropriate if your investment horizon is
two to four years, and a short-term bond fund could be the right choice if
you need your money in one or two years.
If your time horizon is less than a year, you might want to consider moving
some of your bond investment into a money market fund, which seeks income
and a stable share price by investing in high-quality, short-term
investments. Of course, there is no assurance that a money market fund will
achieve its goal, and it is important to remember that money market funds
are not insured or guaranteed by any agency of the U.S. government.
No matter what your investment horizon or portfolio diversity, it makes
good sense to follow a regular investment plan - investing a certain amount
of money at the same time each month or quarter - and to review your
portfolio periodically. A periodic investment plan will not, of course,
assure a profit or protect against a loss.
If you have any questions, please call us at 1-800-544-8888. We stand ready
to provide the information you need to make the investments that are right
for you.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
 
 
There are several ways to evaluate a fund's historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual percentage
change, or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment. Each figure
includes changes in a fund's share price, plus reinvestment of any
dividends (or income) and capital gains (the profits the fund earns when it
sells securities that have grown in value). You can also look at the fund's
income to measure performance. If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain fund
expenses, the past ten years total returns would have been lower.

CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show the fund's performance in percentage terms
over a set period - in this case, six months, one year, five years, or 10
years. For example, if you invested $1,000 in a fund that had a 5% return
over the past year, the value of your investment would be $1,050. You can
compare the fund's returns to the performance of the Lehman Brothers
Municipal Bond Index - which reflects the performance of the
investment-grade municipal bond market. To measure how the fund's
performance stacked up against its peers, you can compare it to the high
yield municipal debt funds average, which reflects the performance of 43
mutual funds with similar objectives tracked by Lipper Analytical Services,
Inc., over the past six months. Both benchmarks include reinvested
dividends and capital gains, if any.

constant rate each year.

$10,000 OVER 10 YEARS:  Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was invested
in Fidelity Aggressive Municipal Fund on June 30, 1986. As the chart shows,
by June 30, 1996, the value of the investment would have grown to $21,725 -
a 117.25% increase on the initial investment. For comparison, look at how
the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index did over the same period. With
dividends and capital gains, if any, reinvested, the same $10,000 would
have grown to $22,015 - a 120.15% increase.
 
UNDERSTANDING
PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is 
no guarantee of how it will do 
tomorrow. Bond prices, for 
example, generally move in 
the opposite direction of 
interest rates. In turn, the 
share price, return, and yield 
of a fund that invests in 
bonds will vary. That means if 
you sell your shares during a 
market downturn, you might 
lose money. But if you can 
ride out the market's ups and 
downs, you may have a gain.

DIVIDEND returns and capital appreciation returns are both part of a bond
fund's total return. A dividend return reflects the actual dividends paid
by the fund. A capital appreciation return reflects both the amount paid by
the fund to shareholders as capital gain distributions and changes in the
fund's share price. Both returns assume the dividends or gains are
reinvested.

DIVIDENDS per share show the income paid by the fund for a set period. If
you annualize this number, based on an average share price of $11.13 over
the past month, $11.38 over the past six months and $11.41 over the past
year, you can compare the fund's income over these three periods. The
30-day annualized YIELD is a standard formula for all funds based on the
yields of the bonds in the fund, averaged over the past 30 days. This
figure shows you the yield characteristics of the fund's investments at the
end of the period. It also helps you compare funds from different companies
on an equal basis. The tax-equivalent yield shows what you would have to
earn on a taxable investment to equal the fund's tax-free yield, if you're
in the 36% 1996 federal tax bracket, but does not reflect the payment of
the federal alternative minimum tax, if applicable.
FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
 
 
An interview with Tanya Roy, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Aggressive
Municipal Fund
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM, TANYA?
A. For the six months ended June 30, 1996, the fund returned -1.01%,
compared to a total return of -0.80% for the high yield municipal debt
funds average, according to Lipper Analytical Services. For the 12 months
ended June 30, 1996, the fund returned 5.26%, while the Lipper average had
a total return of 5.83%. Additionally, the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond
Index had total returns of -0.45% and 6.64% for the six- and 12-month
periods, respectively.
Q. WHY DID THE FUND UNDERPERFORM ITS LIPPER PEER GROUP?
A. The fund's performance was hurt by its interest in the Ford Heights,
Illinois, incinerator project. In March, Governor Edgar signed a bill that
repealed a tax subsidy supporting three incinerator projects in the state,
including Ford Heights. Ford Heights later entered into bankruptcy
proceedings, and the fund subsequently sold its position in the bonds.
Q. WHAT WAS THE REST OF THE MARKET ENVIRONMENT LIKE OVER THE PERIOD?
A. It's been a fairly volatile six months. Yields rose during the period,
but the municipal market held its own, significantly outperforming U.S.
Treasuries. Within the muni market, the high-yield area did well generally.
Credit quality spreads - the difference in yields between high-yield and
investment-grade bonds - had been fairly tight entering the period and for
the most part remained that way, aided by a light supply of new issuance
coming to market. In fact, spreads continued to tighten a bit between Baa-
and Aaa-rated bonds, and the fund benefited from that tightening.
Q. LET'S TURN TO SOME OF THE SECTORS THE FUND HAD FOCUSED ON DURING THE
PERIOD. YOU'VE CONTINUED TO MAINTAIN A HIGH EXPOSURE TO HEALTH CARE . . .
A. That's right, and the fund's holdings in that sector performed well over
the past six months. As I mentioned in a prior report, I had viewed some of
the lower-rated bonds in health care as undervalued, due to lingering
concerns over health care reform and increased competition. That's why I
had focused on the area of long-term care, where I felt that private payers
would be more important, and government reimbursements would play less of a
factor. Those types of bonds were certainly aided during the period by the
tightening in the high-yield end of the market, and they've done well for
the fund.
Q. YOU'VE ALSO INCREASED THE FUND'S EXPOSURE TO ELECTRIC UTILITIES. WHAT
WAS BEHIND YOUR THINKING THERE?
A. That sector has been going through some changes related to deregulation
and increased competition. As a result, there have been some clear
performance differences among issuers, and the fund has been able to find
opportunities by leveraging the strength of Fidelity's credit research
team. We saw some spread widening that we viewed as more than was
justified, and we've tried to take advantage of those situations as they've
become available. Another area of recent focus that I might mention is
Industrial Development Bonds, or IDBs, where I found a number of
opportunities for the fund. For example, the fund owned obligations of
Kroger Co., a major supermarket company that continued to exhibit improving
financials. Airline bonds are another example. IDB bonds issued to finance
the expansion of Delta's facility at the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky
Airport were boosted by Delta's recent credit upgrade by Moody's Investors
Service.
Q. WAS THERE ANY AREA YOU WOULD HAVE LIKED TO HAVE TAKEN BETTER ADVANTAGE
OF DURING THE PERIOD?
A. Looking back, I'd say that the fund might have benefited from a heavier
weighting in California. The state's economy has outpaced that of the
nation recently, and bonds in the state performed very well in the first
half of the year. We were somewhat underweighted 
versus the index, and more exposure there would have helped the fund's
overall performance.
Q. WHAT DO YOU SEE AHEAD FOR THE MUNICIPAL MARKET?
A. I think we will continue to see reasonable economic growth in the months
ahead. If that happens, yields should stay within a narrow range from where
they are now. I am anticipating renewed discussion of tax reform during the
election season, which may contribute to increased volatility in the
municipal market. Beyond that, I'll continue to look for opportunities to
find relative value within the high-yield market.
Q. TANYA, WE UNDERSTAND THERE HAS BEEN A CHANGE TO THE FUND'S INVESTMENT
POLICIES . . .
A. That's right. As of June 24, 1996, the fund changed some of its debt
quality policies. The fund is no longer required to invest 65% of its
holdings in securities equivalent in quality to those rated A or below.
This change allows me more flexibility to invest in higher-quality
securities if I believe the return potential of lower-quality securities is
not commensurate with the risk. The fund was introduced in 1985, but the
Tax Act of 1986 significantly reduced the supply of lower-quality municipal
bonds by preventing or reducing the ability of certain issuers or sectors
of the market to issue tax-exempt bonds. For a while, a substantial supply
of these kinds of 
bonds were available in the secondary market, but now that is no longer the
case. While the fund will still invest in lower-quality securities, it is
no longer required to do so to such a large extent.
THE VIEWS EXPRESSED IN THIS REPORT REFLECT THOSE OF THE PORTFOLIO MANAGER
ONLY THROUGH THE END OF THE PERIOD OF THE REPORT AS STATED ON THE COVER.
THE MANAGER'S VIEWS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE AT ANY TIME BASED ON MARKET AND
OTHER CONDITIONS.

TANYA ROY ON SUPPLY AND 
DEMAND IN THE MUNICIPAL 
MARKET:
"Supply and demand forces 
play an influential role in the 
municipal market. Supply 
comes in two forms: new bond 
sales and refinancings, which 
are also called refundings, in 
which issuers typically replace 
existing bonds with lower-cost 
debt. The outlook for refunding 
volume is highly sensitive to 
interest rate levels and, 
therefore, is difficult to predict. 
The modest growth in new 
debt sales we've seen so far in 
1996 reflects several trends: 
tighter fiscal management by 
municipal governments; 
industry consolidation, 
particularly among hospitals 
and electric utilities; and 
heightened sensitivity of 
taxpayers to government 
costs. These trends could 
result in a relatively small 
increase in new issuance for 
the rest of the year, although 
we could see brief periods of 
concentrated supply.
"Demand is derived from 
individuals, mutual funds, 
insurance companies, banks 
and other sources, and 
changes depending on 
circumstances. For example, 
individual investor demand 
generally decreases when 
rates are low, or when 
alternatives such as stocks 
provide competitive returns. 
Higher interest rates or a 
stock market correction can 
bring higher demand for 
municipals. However, the 
ongoing issue of tax reform - 
which has caused some 
investors to worry that 
municipals could lose their tax 
advantage - could be an 
offsetting factor."

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended June 30, 1996 (Unaudited)
 
 
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Fidelity Aggressive Municipal Fund (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity
Municipal Trust (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number
of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment
company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The financial
statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles which permit management to make certain estimates and
assumptions at the date of the financial statements. The following
summarizes the significant accounting policies of the fund:
SECURITY VALUATION. Securities are valued based upon a computerized matrix
system and/or appraisals by a pricing service, both of which consider
market transactions and dealer-supplied valuations. Short-term securities
maturing within sixty days of their purchase date are valued either at
amortized cost or original cost plus accrued interest, both of which
approximate current value. Securities for which quotations are not readily
available are valued at their fair value as determined in good faith under
consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board
of Trustees.
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under Subchapter
M of the Internal Revenue Code, the fund is not subject to income taxes to
the extent that it distributes substantially all of its taxable income for
its fiscal year. The schedule of investments includes information regarding
income taxes under the caption "Income Tax Information."
INTEREST INCOME. Interest income, which includes amortization of premium
and accretion of original issue discount, is accrued as earned.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund.
Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned between the
funds in the trust.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Dividends are declared daily and paid
monthly from net interest income. Distributions to shareholders from
realized capital gains on investments, if any, are recorded on the
ex-dividend date.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with
income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles. These differences, which may result in distribution
reclassifications, are primarily due to differing treatments for futures
and options transactions, market discount, capital loss carryforwards, and
losses deferred due to wash sales, futures and options, and excise tax
regulations. 
Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder
distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital and may
affect the per-share allocation between net investment income and realized
and unrealized gain (loss). Undistributed net interest income and
accumulated undistributed 
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS - CONTINUED
net realized gain (loss) on investments may include temporary book and tax
basis differences which will reverse in a subsequent period. Any taxable
income or gain remaining at fiscal year end is distributed in the following
year.
During the period, the fund received payments from the trustees for
Michigan Health Care Corporation, a Detroit hospital system that filed for
bankruptcy in the spring of 1995. These amounts, which were recorded as
income for book purposes, remain undistributed to shareholders pending
determination by the bankruptcy courts as to their classification for
income tax purposes.
REDEMPTION FEES. Shares held in the fund less than 180 days are subject to
a redemption fee equal to 1% of the proceeds of the redeemed shares. The
fee, which is retained by the fund, is accounted for as an addition to paid
in capital.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for as of trade
date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of
identified cost.
2. OPERATING POLICIES.
DELAYED DELIVERY TRANSACTIONS. The fund may purchase or sell securities on
a when-issued or forward commitment basis. Payment and delivery may take
place a month or more after the date of 
the transaction. The price of the underlying securities and the date when
the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the
transaction is negotiated. The market value of the securities purchased or
sold on a when-issued or forward commitment basis are identified as such in
the fund's schedule of investments. The fund may receive compensation for
interest forgone in the purchase of a delayed delivery security. Losses may
arise due to changes in the market value of the underlying securities or if
the counterparty does not perform under the contract. 
FUTURES CONTRACTS AND OPTIONS. The fund may use futures and options
contracts to manage its exposure to the bond market and to fluctuations in
interest rates. Buying futures, writing puts, and buying calls tend to
increase the fund's exposure to the underlying instrument. Selling futures,
buying puts, and writing calls tend to decrease the fund's exposure to the
underlying instrument, or hedge other fund investments. Losses may arise
from changes in the value of the underlying instruments, if there is an
illiquid secondary market for the contracts, or if the counterparties do
not perform under the contracts' terms.
Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day
by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. Exchange-traded
options are valued using the last sale price or, in the absence of a sale,
the last offering price. Options traded over-the-counter are valued using
dealer-supplied valuations.
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS. 
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities,
aggregated $150,046,955 and $163,620,686, respectively.
The market value of futures contracts opened and closed during the period
amounted to $10,786,379 and $19,413,762, respectively.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES. 
MANAGEMENT FEE. As the fund's investment adviser, Fidelity Management &
Research Company (FMR) receives a monthly fee that is calculated on the
basis of a group fee rate plus a fixed individual fund fee rate applied to
the average net assets of the fund. The group fee rate is the weighted
average of a series of rates and is based on the monthly average net assets
of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The rates ranged from .1100% to
..3700% for the period. In the event that these rates were lower than the
contractual rates in effect during the period, FMR voluntarily implemented
the above rates, as they resulted in the same or a lower management fee.
The annual individual fund fee rate is .30%. For the period, the management
fee was equivalent to an annualized rate of .45% of average net assets.
TRANSFER AGENT AND ACCOUNTING FEES. UMB Bank, n.a. (UMB) is the custodian
and transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the fund. The Bank has
entered into a sub-contract with Fidelity Service Co. (FSC), an affiliate
of FMR, under which FSC performs the activities associated with the fund's
transfer and shareholder servicing agent and accounting functions. The fund
pays account fees and asset-based fees that vary according to account size
and type of account. FSC pays for typesetting, printing and mailing of all
shareholder reports, except proxy statements. The accounting fee is based
on the level of average net assets for the month plus out-of-pocket
expenses. For the period, FSC received transfer agent and accounting fees
amounting to $564,401 and $156,052, respectively. 
For the period, the transfer agent fees were equivalent to an annualized
rate of .13% of average net assets.
5. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS.
The fund has entered into arrangements with its custodian and transfer
agent whereby interest earned on uninvested cash balances was used to
offset a portion of the fund's expenses. During the period, the fund's
custodian and transfer agent fees were reduced by $1,382 and $4,403,
respectively, under these arrangements.
