PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
(PHOTO_OF_EDWARD_C_JOHNSON_3D)DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although financial turmoil in Pacific Basin countries was a catalyst
for significant volatility in U.S. markets throughout the fourth
quarter, the Standard & Poor's 500 Index rose more than 33% in 1997,
about three times its historical annual average. Meanwhile, bond
markets - primarily influenced by a relatively steady flow of positive
news on the inflation front - continued to post solid returns as the
year drew to a close.
While it's impossible to predict the future direction of the markets
with any degree of certainty, there are certain basic principles that
can help investors plan for their future needs.
The longer your investment time frame, the less likely it is that you
will be affected by short-term market volatility. A 10-year investment
horizon appropriate for saving for a college education, for example,
enables you to weather market cycles in a long-term fund, which may
have a higher risk potential, but also has a higher potential rate of
return.
An intermediate-length fund could make sense if your investment
horizon is two to four years, while 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. These
funds seek income and a stable share price by investing in
high-quality, short-term investments. Of course, it's important to
remember that there is no assurance that a money market fund will
achieve its goal of maintaining a stable net asset value of $1.00 per
share, and that these types of funds are neither insured nor
guaranteed by any agency of the U.S. government.
Finally, no matter what your time horizon or portfolio diversity, it
makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan, investing a
certain amount of money in a fund at the same time each month or
quarter and periodically reviewing your overall portfolio. By doing
so, you won't get caught up in the excitement of a rapidly rising
market, nor will you buy all your shares at market highs. While this
strategy - known as dollar cost averaging - won't assure a profit or
protect you from a loss in a declining market, it should help you
lower the average cost of your purchases.
If you have questions, please call us at 1-800-544-8888. We are
available 24 hours a day, seven days a week to provide you the
information you need to make the investments that are right for you.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d
SPARTAN MICHIGAN MUNICIPAL INCOME FUND
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. Total return reflects the change in the value of an
investment assuming reinvestment of the fund's dividend income and
capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that
have grown in value). You can also look at the fund's income, as
reflected in the fund's yield, to measure performance. If Fidelity had
not reimbursed certain fund expenses, the total returns and dividends
would have been lower.
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS

SPARTAN MI MUNI INCOME 9.02% 36.95% 120.12%
LB MICHIGAN MUNICIPAL BOND 9.42% N/A N/A
MICHIGAN MUNICIPAL DEBT FUNDS AVERAGE 8.50% 38.10% 121.05%
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show the fund's performance over a set period
- - in this case, one year, five years or 10 years. For example, if you
had 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 Michigan
Municipal Bond Index - a total return performance benchmark for
Michigan investment-grade municipal bonds with maturities of at least
one year. To measure how the fund's performance stacked up against its
peers, you can compare it to the Michigan municipal debt funds
average, which reflects the performance of Michigan tax-exempt
municipal bond funds with similar objectives tracked by Lipper
Analytical Services, Inc. The past one year average represents a peer
group of 50 mutual funds. These benchmarks include reinvested
dividends and capital gains, if any, and exclude the effect of sales
charges.

AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS take the fund's cumulative return and
show you what would have happened if the fund had performed at a
constant rate each year. (Note: Lipper calculates average annual total
returns by annualizing each fund's total return, then taking the
arithmetic average. This may produce a slightly different figure than
that obtained by averaging the cumulative total returns and
annualizing the result.)

$10,000 OVER 10 YEARS: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was
invested in Spartan Michigan Municipal Income Fund on December 31,
1987. As the chart shows, by December 31, 1997, the value of the
investment would have grown to $22,012 - a 120.12% increase on the
initial investment. For comparison, look at how the Lehman Brothers
Municipal Bond Index, which reflects the performance of the
investment-grade municipal bond market, did over the same period. With
dividends reinvested, the same $10,000 would have grown to $22,785 - a
127.85% increase.

SPARTAN MICHIGAN MUNICIPAL INCOME FUND
FUND TALK: THE MANAGERS' OVERVIEW
MARKET RECAP
With investor sentiment, shifting
supply/demand conditions and
Federal Reserve Board
policymaking playing integral
roles, municipal bonds managed
to perform well for the 12 months
that ended December 31, 1997.
The Lehman Brothers Municipal
Bond Index - a measure of the
municipal bond market -
returned 9.19% in this period,
while its taxable counterpart -
the Lehman Brothers Aggregate
Bond Index - returned 9.65%.
Through much of the first half of
1997, the supply/demand
situation was favorable as low
supply and high demand
translated into rising muni bond
prices. The second half, however,
saw a large amount of new
issuance and while demand
remained healthy, it took time for
investors to become acclimated to
this new supply. In the interim,
muni bond prices fell. Another
notable hiccup came in March,
when the Federal Reserve Board
raised a key short-term interest
rate to try to stave off inflation.
Although investors anticipated this
move, the market nevertheless
reacted negatively. From April
through mid-September,
encouraging economic data,
coupled with the Fed's reluctance
to raise rates further, tempered
concerns. In September and
October, high supply and low
demand resulted in subpar
performance for muni bonds, but
Asian volatility toward the end of
the period changed momentum.
Currency devaluations in that
region meant prices of Asian
goods would become cheaper
and that inflation was less likely.
NOTE TO SHAREHOLDERS: Effective January 31, 1998, Norm Lind (right
photo) became Portfolio Manager of Spartan Michigan Municipal Income
Fund. The following is an interview with David Murphy (left photo),
who managed the fund during the period covered by this report, with
additional comments from Norm Lind on his outlook and investment
approach.
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM, DAVID?
D.M. For the 12-month period that ended December 31, 1997, the fund
had a total return of 9.02%. To get a sense of how the fund did
relative to its competitors, the Michigan municipal debt funds average
returned 8.50% for the same 12-month period, according to Lipper
Analytical Services. Additionally, the Lehman Brothers Michigan
Municipal Bond Index - which tracks the state's municipal market -
returned 9.42% for the same one-year period.
Q. WHAT WAS YOUR STRATEGY?
D.M. In terms of the way the fund's investments were allocated among
bonds with various maturities, over the past six months I increased
the fund's emphasis on bonds with maturities between 10 and 20 years.
I did that because the yield curve - which is a graphical
representation of the yield of bonds by ascending maturity dates - was
flat beyond 20 years. Up to about a 20-year maturity, an investor was
paid an appropriate amount of added income for each additional year of
maturity. It is this additional income that compensates the investor
for the added risk taken on by investing in the longer-maturity part
of the intermediate market. But for bonds with maturities of more than
20 years, the extra income for each successive year was, in my
opinion, less attractive given the level of risk inherent in
longer-term bonds. Another key strategy was that I kept the fund's
duration - which measures its sensitivity to changes in interest rates
- - in line with the municipal bond market as a whole, as represented by
the Lehman Brothers Michigan Municipal Bond Index. By doing so, the
fund avoided becoming aggressive or defensive about the direction of
interest rates at the wrong time.
Q. WHAT WERE SOME OF THE FUND'S BEST PERFORMERS DURING THE PERIOD?
WHICH INVESTMENTS PROVED DISAPPOINTING?
D.M. Some of the fund's best performers were discount-coupon bonds,
which offer less annual income than newly issued securities. When
interest rates fall and the bond market rallies - as it did throughout
much of the final six months of 1997 - discounts generally do well. As
far as disappointments go, bonds issued by Michigan Health Care Corp.,
which had been in bankruptcy for the past two years, continued to
detract modestly from the fund's performance. However, at the very end
of the period, the company was liquidated, its assets were sold and
the bulk of the proceeds were given to bond holders. As a result, the
bonds ceased to exist.
Q. WERE THERE ANY CHANGES TO THE WAY THE FUND'S INVESTMENTS WERE
ALLOCATED AMONG THE VARIOUS SECTORS OF THE MUNICIPAL MARKET?
D.M. The fund's sector concentrations remained roughly the same
throughout the past six months. However, within the health care sector
I did make some noticeable changes. Specifically, I sold some of the
fund's lower-quality, Baa-rated health care holdings in order to lock
in their strong performance and to focus on higher-quality
organizations. Thanks to strong labor unions and the attractive health
care coverage they've gotten for their members, Michigan hospitals
have been somewhat immune to the cost-cutting pressures that face
hospitals in most other states. Furthermore, the state does not permit
for-profit hospitals, so there has been limited competitive pressure
coming from health care companies outside of Michigan. Moreover,
because I believe that Michigan's health care organizations will face
increased competition down the road, I added more higher-rated
hospitals with strong balance sheets and capable management teams. In
my view, hospitals with those advantages are better-prepared to
survive and do well in a more competitive environment.
Q. TURNING TO YOU NORM, WHAT'S
YOUR OUTLOOK?
N.L. The municipal market's performance largely will depend on the
direction of interest rates, although the supply of and demand for
municipal bonds also will play a role. As far as supply goes, we saw
more municipal bonds come to market in the final months of 1997 as
issuers took advantage of falling interest rates to issue new debt or
refinance their older, more expensive debt. As long as interest rates
stay at current levels or fall further, I expect we'll see more of
that activity and the supply of municipal bonds will grow. The
question is: Will demand be strong enough to digest that growing
supply? Over the past six months or so, the increase in the supply of
municipals has contributed to municipal bonds underperforming U.S.
Treasury bonds. But that undeperformance may turn out to be a silver
lining because municipals are priced attractively compared to their
taxable counterparts. If investors start focusing on their value,
municipals could perform well relative to Treasuries.
THE VIEWS EXPRESSED IN THIS REPORT REFLECT THOSE OF THE PORTFOLIO
MANAGERS ONLY THROUGH THE END OF THE PERIOD OF THE REPORT AS STATED ON

ON MARKET AND OTHER CONDITIONS.
NORM LIND ON HIS INVESTMENT
STYLE:
"My strategy is the same as the
previous manager of the fund. I
focus on adding value through
individual security selection,
rather than trying to predict where
interest rates are headed. As a
result, I will continue to match the
fund's duration - which measures
how sensitive its share price is to
changes in interest rates - with
that of the intermediate municipal
market, as tracked by the Lehman
Brothers Michigan Municipal
Bond Index. By keeping the fund's
duration `neutral' to the market,
its performance won't be
compromised because I made an
incorrect judgment about the
direction of interest rates.
"Bonds can become cheap if they
fall out of investors' favor as a
result of their credit quality,
maturity or other factor. In
choosing individual securities, I
look for bonds that I think are
priced cheap relative to what I
believe to be their fair value, with
the intention of holding them until
I believe they've reached full
value."

YEARS 6.8 6.9
DURATION SHOWS HOW MUCH A BOND FUND'S PRICE FLUCTUATES WITH CHANGES IN
COMPARABLE INTEREST RATES. IF RATES RISE 1%, FOR EXAMPLE, A FUND WITH
A FIVE-YEAR DURATION IS LIKELY TO LOSE ABOUT 5% OF ITS VALUE. OTHER
FACTORS ALSO CAN INFLUENCE A BOND FUND'S PERFORMANCE AND SHARE PRICE.
ACCORDINGLY, A BOND FUND'S ACTUAL PERFORMANCE MAY DIFFER FROM THIS
EXAMPLE.

PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
To measure a money market fund's historical performance, you can look
at either total return or yield. Total return reflects the change in
value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of the fund's dividend
income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of
securities that have grown in value). Yield measures the income paid
by a fund. Since a money market fund tries to maintain a $1 share
price, yield is an important measure of performance. If Fidelity had
not reimbursed the fund for certain expenses, the life of fund total
returns would have been lower.

CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show the fund's performance in percentage
terms over a set period - in this case, one year, five years or since
the fund started on January 12, 1990. For example, if you had invested
$1,000 in a fund that had a 5% return over the past year, the value of
your investment would be $1,050. To measure how the fund's performance
stacked up against its peers, you can compare it to the all tax-free
money market funds average, which reflects the performance of all
tax-free money market funds with similar objectives tracked by IBC
Financial Data, Inc. The past one year average represents a peer group
of 435 money market funds. (The periods covered by the IBC Financial
Data, Inc. numbers are the closest available match to those covered by
the fund.)

YIELD refers to the income paid by the fund over a given period.
Yields for money market funds are usually for seven-day periods,
expressed as annual percentage rates. A yield that assumes income
earned is reinvested or compounded is called an effective yield. The
chart above shows the fund's current seven-day yield at quarterly
intervals over the past year. You can compare these yields to the all
tax-free money market funds average as tracked by IBC Financial Data,
Inc. Or you can look at the fund's tax-equivalent yield, which is
based on a combined effective 1997 federal and state income tax rate
of 38.82%. A portion of the fund's income may be subject to the
federal alternative minimum tax.
A MONEY MARKET FUND'S TOTAL RETURNS AND YIELDS WILL VARY, AND REFLECT
PAST RESULTS RATHER THAN PREDICT FUTURE PERFORMANCE.
COMPARING
PERFORMANCE
Yields on tax-free investments
are usually lower than yields on
taxable investments. However, a
straight comparison between the
two may be misleading because
it ignores the way taxes reduce
taxable returns. Tax-equivalent
yield - the yield you'd have to
earn on a similar taxable
investment to match the tax-free
yield - makes the comparison
more meaningful. Keep in mind
that the U.S. government
neither insures nor guarantees a
money market fund. And there
is no assurance that a money
fund will maintain a $1 share
price.

FIDELITY MICHIGAN MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET FUND
FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
An interview with Diane McLaughlin, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity
Michigan Municipal Money Market Fund
Q. WHAT HAPPENED IN THE MARKET IN 1997?
N.L. Overall, economic growth was strong throughout the year. After 14
months of steady policy, the Federal Reserve Board raised the rate
banks charge each other for overnight loans - known as the fed funds
target rate - from 5.25% to 5.50% in March. Real GDP - gross domestic
product adjusted for inflation - for the first quarter of 1997 posted
a 4.9% gain and May's payroll data revealed a 4.8% unemployment rate,
the lowest level since 1973. As a result, many market observers felt
the Fed would continue to raise rates. That sentiment changed,
however, after Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan's semiannual
Humphrey-Hawkins testimony before Congress in July. At that time,
Greenspan said he felt business productivity improvements in recent
years had reduced the risk of the inflationary pressures that had
previously accompanied similar periods of low unemployment.
Greenspan's comments calmed the market, but only until mid-summer,
when second-quarter real GDP was revised to 3.3% from the originally
reported 2.2% and fears of interest-rate increases resurfaced. The
market believed that continued strength in the economy and tightening
labor markets would create pricing pressures.
Q. WHAT HAPPENED AT THE END OF THE PERIOD?
N.L. Strong growth persisted. Third-quarter real GDP posted a healthy
3.1% gain and the year ended with unemployment at 4.7%. Market
sentiment changed, however, as attention shifted to the financial
crisis in Southeast Asia and its potential negative impact on U.S.
export growth. The dollar continued to appreciate against currencies
in that region, making imports from Asia even less expensive,
intensifying competition and further suppressing inflation. Therefore,
we ended the period at an unusual juncture - an environment of strong
growth, low inflation and uncertainty created by the financial
problems in Asia.
Q. WHAT WAS YOUR STRATEGY AS THIS UNFOLDED?
N.L. The fund's average maturity started the period at 47 days,
shorter than the average of its competitors. In anticipation of higher
rates, the fund's average maturity was shortened significantly - to a
low of 24 days in June - following the fed funds target rate hike in
March. For most of the year, my investment focus was on the short end
of the money market yield curve, as increased supply of variable-rate
demand notes made that part of the market attractive. The fund's
average maturity remained shorter than that of its peers, ending the
period at 40 days.
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM?
N.L. The fund's seven-day yield on December 31, 1997, was 3.46%,
compared to 3.39% 12 months ago. The latest yield was the equivalent
of a 5.66% taxable yield for Michigan investors in the 38.82% combined
federal and state tax bracket. Through December 31, 1997, the fund's
12-month total return was 3.18%, compared to 3.14% for the all
tax-free money market funds average, according to IBC Financial Data,
Inc.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK?
N.L. Unemployment averaged 4.9% in 1997 - a rate that historically
would have meant higher inflation caused by wage pressures. However,
the 1997 producer price index (PPI) - a measure of wholesale prices -
dropped 1.2%, representing the biggest one-year drop since 1986.
Similarly, the consumer price index (CPI) finished the year up 1.8%,
the slowest gain in that same 11-year time period. Little inflationary
pressure, combined with the Asian situation, make a near-term rate
hike unlikely. Given my outlook for steady Fed policy, I plan to
maintain a neutral average maturity in the near future.
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.
NORM LIND ON HIS INVESTMENT
STYLE:
"My strategy is the same as the
previous manager of the fund. I
focus on adding value through
individual security selection,
rather than trying to predict where
interest rates are headed. As a
result, I will continue to match the
fund's duration - which measures
how sensitive its share price is to
changes in interest rates - with
that of the intermediate municipal
market, as tracked by the Lehman
Brothers Michigan Municipal
Bond Index. By keeping the fund's
duration `neutral' to the market,
its performance won't be
compromised because I made an
incorrect judgment about the
direction of interest rates.
"Bonds can become cheap if they
fall out of investors' favor as a
result of their credit quality,
maturity or other factor. In
choosing individual securities, I
look for bonds that I think are
priced cheap relative to what I
believe to be their fair value, with
the intention of holding them until
I believe they've reached full
value."

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Spartan Michigan Municipal Income Fund (the income fund)(formerly
Fidelity Michigan Municipal Income Fund) is a fund of Fidelity
Municipal Trust. Fidelity Michigan Municipal Money Market Fund (the
money market fund) is a fund of Fidelity Municipal Trust II. Each
trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company.
Fidelity Municipal Trust and Fidelity Municipal Trust II (the trusts)
are organized as a Massachusetts business trust and a Delaware
business trust, respectively. Each fund is authorized to issue an
unlimited number of shares. 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 money market fund and the
income fund:
SECURITY VALUATION.
INCOME FUND. 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. 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.
Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less
for which quotations are not readily available are valued at amortized
cost or original cost plus accrued interest, both of which approximate
current value.
MONEY MARKET FUND. As permitted under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act, and
certain conditions therein, securities are valued initially at cost
and thereafter assume a constant amortization to maturity of any
discount or premium.
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under
Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, each fund is not subject to
income taxes to the extent that it distributes substantially all of
its taxable income for the fiscal year. The schedules of investments
include 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. For the money market fund, accretion of discount represents
unrealized gain until realized at the time of a security disposition
or maturity.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of each trust can be directly attributed to a
fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned
among 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.
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES - CONTINUED
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS - CONTINUED
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 transactions, market discount and losses
deferred due to futures and excise tax regulations. The fund also
utilized earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on
redemption of shares as a part of the dividends paid deduction for
income tax purposes.
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). Accumulated undistributed net
realized gain (loss) on investments may include temporary book and tax
basis differences that will reverse in a subsequent period. Any
taxable gain remaining at fiscal year end is distributed in the
following year.
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.
FUTURES CONTRACTS. The income fund may use futures contracts to manage
its exposure to the bond market and to fluctuations in interest rates.
Buying futures tends to increase the fund's exposure to the underlying
instrument, while selling futures tends to decrease the fund's
exposure to the underlying instrument or hedge other fund investments.
Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess
of the futures variation margin reflected in the Statement of Assets
and Liabilities. The underlying face amount at value of any open
futures contracts at period end is shown in the schedule of
investments under the caption "Futures Contracts." This amount
reflects each contract's exposure to the underlying instrument at
period end. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the
underlying instruments or if the counterparties do not perform under
the contracts' terms. Gains (losses) are realized upon the expiration
or closing of the futures contracts. Futures contracts are valued at
the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or
exchange on which they are traded.
MUNICIPAL CENTRAL CASH FUND. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), each fund may invest
in the Municipal Central Cash Fund (the Cash Fund) managed by Fidelity
Investments Money Management Inc.(formerly FMR Texas Inc.), an
affiliate of Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR). The Cash
Fund is an open-end money market fund available only to investment
companies and other accounts managed by FMR and its affiliates. The
Cash Fund seeks preservation of capital, liquidity, and current income
by investing in high-quality, short-term municipal securities of
various states and municipalities. Income distributions from the Cash
Fund are declared daily and paid

monthly from net interest income. Income distributions earned by the
fund are recorded as interest income in the accompanying financial
statements.
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS.
INCOME FUND. Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term
securities, aggregated $68,016,367 and $82,480,428, respectively.
The market value of futures contracts opened and closed during the
period amounted to $48,444,379 and $47,907,968, respectively.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
MANAGEMENT FEE. As each fund's investment adviser, 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
each 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. The annual individual fund fee rate is .25%. 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. For the period, the management
fee was equivalent to an annual rate of .39% of average net assets for
the income and money market funds.
SUB-ADVISER FEE. As the money market fund's investment sub-adviser,
Fidelity Investments Money Management Inc. (formerly FMR Texas Inc.),
a wholly owned subsidiary of FMR, receives a fee from FMR of 50% of
the management fee payable to FMR. The fee is paid prior to any
voluntary expense reimbursements which may be in effect.
TRANSFER AGENT AND ACCOUNTING FEES. UMB Bank, n.a. (UMB) is the
custodian and transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the funds.
UMB has entered into a sub-contract with Fidelity Service Company,
Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, under which FSC performs the
activities associated with the funds' transfer and shareholder
servicing agent and accounting functions. The funds pay 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 $552,833 and $190,407 for the income
fund and $446,424 and $57,582 for the money market fund, respectively.
For the period, the transfer agent fees were equivalent to an annual
rate of .12%

and .17% of average net assets for the income fund and the money
market fund, respectively.
Money market fund shareholders participating in the Fidelity Ultra
Service Account(registered trademark) Program (the Program) paid a
$5.00 monthly fee to Fidelity Brokerage Services, Inc. (FBSI), an
affiliate of FMR, for performing services associated with the Program.
For the period, fees paid to FBSI by shareholders participating in the
Program amounted to $5,125. Effective September 1, 1997, the monthly
fee was eliminated.
5. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS.
Effective April 1, 1997, FMR voluntarily agreed to reimburse the
income fund's operating expenses (excluding interest, taxes, brokerage
commissions and extraordinary expenses) above an annual rate of .55%
of the fund's average net assets. For the period, the reimbursement
reduced expenses by $95,333. In addition, each fund has entered into
arrangements with their custodian and transfer agent whereby credits
realized as a result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce a
portion of each applicable fund's expenses. During the period, the
custodian and transfer agent fees were reduced by $2,745 and $738,
respectively, for the income fund and $30 and $1,644, respectively,
for the money market fund, under these arrangements.

financial highlights are the responsibility of the fund's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial

includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included
confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 1997 by
correspondence with the custodian and brokers. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates

reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights
referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
(PHOTO_OF_EDWARD_C_JOHNSON_3D)DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although financial turmoil in Pacific Basin countries was a catalyst
for significant volatility in U.S. markets throughout the fourth
quarter, the Standard & Poor's 500 Index rose more than 33% in 1997,
about three times its historical annual average. Meanwhile, bond
markets - primarily influenced by a relatively steady flow of positive
news on the inflation front - continued to post solid returns as the
year drew to a close.
While it's impossible to predict the future direction of the markets
with any degree of certainty, there are certain basic principles that
can help investors plan for their future needs.
The longer your investment time frame, the less likely it is that you
will be affected by short-term market volatility. A 10-year investment
horizon appropriate for saving for a college education, for example,
enables you to weather market cycles in a long-term fund, which may
have a higher risk potential, but also has a higher potential rate of
return.
An intermediate-length fund could make sense if your investment
horizon is two to four years, while 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. These
funds seek income and a stable share price by investing in
high-quality, short-term investments. Of course, it's important to
remember that there is no assurance that a money market fund will
achieve its goal of maintaining a stable net asset value of $1.00 per
share, and that these types of funds are neither insured nor
guaranteed by any agency of the U.S. government.
Finally, no matter what your time horizon or portfolio diversity, it
makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan, investing a
certain amount of money in a fund at the same time each month or
quarter and periodically reviewing your overall portfolio. By doing
so, you won't get caught up in the excitement of a rapidly rising
market, nor will you buy all your shares at market highs. While this
strategy - known as dollar cost averaging - won't assure a profit or
protect you from a loss in a declining market, it should help you
lower the average cost of your purchases.
If you have questions, please call us at 1-800-544-8888. We are
available 24 hours a day, seven days a week to provide you the
information you need to make the investments that are right for you.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d
SPARTAN OHIO MUNICIPAL INCOME FUND
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. Total return reflects the change in the value of an
investment, assuming reinvestment of the fund's dividend income and
capital gains (the profits the fund earned upon the sale of securities
that have grown in value). You can also look at the fund's income, as
reflected in the fund's yield, to measure performance. If Fidelity had
not reimbursed certain fund expenses, the total returns and dividends
would have been lower.
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS
PERIODS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 PAST 1 PAST 5 PAST 10
YEAR YEARS YEARS
SPARTAN OH MUNICIPAL INCOME 8.74% 40.25% 126.77%
LB OHIO 4 PLUS YEAR MUNICIPAL BOND 9.03% N/A N/A
OHIO MUNICIPAL DEBT FUNDS AVERAGE 8.16% 38.20% 118.71%
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show the fund's performance in percentage
terms over a set period - in this case, one year, five years or 10
years. For example, if you had 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 Ohio 4 Plus Year Municipal Bond Index - a total return
performance benchmark for Ohio investment-grade municipal bonds with
maturities of at least four years. To measure how the fund's
performance stacked up against its peers, you can compare it to the
Ohio municipal debt funds average, which reflects the performance of
mutual funds with similar objectives tracked by Lipper Analytical
Services, Inc. The past one year average represents a peer group of 50
mutual funds. These benchmarks include reinvested dividends and
capital gains, if any, and exclude the effect of sales charges.
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS

LB OHIO 4 PLUS YEAR MUNICIPAL BOND 9.03% N/A N/A
OHIO MUNICIPAL DEBT FUNDS AVERAGE 8.16% 6.68% 8.13%
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS take the fund's cumulative return and
show you what would have happened if the fund had performed at a
constant rate each year. (Note: Lipper calculates average annual total
returns by annualizing each funds total return, then taking the
arithmetic average. This may produce a slightly different figure then
that obtained by averaging the cumulative total returns and
annualizing the result.)

$10,000 OVER 10 YEARS: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was
invested in Spartan Ohio Municipal Income Fund on December 31, 1987.
As the chart shows, by December 31, 1997, the value of the investment
would have grown to $22,677 a 126.77% increase on the initial
investment. For comparison, look at how the Lehman Brothers Municipal
Bond Index - a total return performance benchmark for investment-grade
municipal bonds with maturities of at least one year - did over the
same period. With dividends reinvested, the same $10,000 would have
grown to $22,785 - a 127.85% increase.

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
$11.74 over the past one month, $11.62 over the past six months and
$11.49 over the past one 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 40.61%
combined effective 1997 federal and state tax bracket, but does not
reflect the payment of the federal alternative minimum tax, if
applicable. If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain fund expenses
during the period shown, the yield and tax-equivalent yield would have
been 4.21% and 7.09%, respectively.
SPARTAN OHIO MUNICIPAL INCOME FUND
FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
MARKET RECAP
With investor sentiment, shifting
supply/demand conditions and
Federal Reserve Board
policymaking playing integral
roles, municipal bonds managed to
perform well for the 12 months that
ended December 31, 1997. The
Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond
Index - a measure of the
municipal bond market - returned
9.19% in this period, while its
taxable counterpart - the Lehman
Brothers Aggregate Bond Index -
returned 9.65%. Through much of
the first half of 1997, the
supply/demand situation was
favorable as low supply and high
demand translated into rising muni
bond prices. The second half,
however, saw a large amount of
new issuance and while demand
remained healthy, it took time for
investors to become acclimated to
this new supply. In the interim, muni
bond prices fell. Another notable
hiccup came in March, when the
Federal Reserve Board raised a key
short-term interest rate to try to
stave off inflation. Although
investors anticipated this move, the
market nevertheless reacted
negatively. From April through
mid-September, encouraging
economic data, coupled with the
Fed's reluctance to raise rates
further, tempered concerns. In
September and October, high
supply and low demand resulted in
subpar performance for muni
bonds, but Asian volatility toward
the end of the period changed
momentum. Currency devaluations
in that region meant prices of
Asian goods would become
cheaper and that inflation was
less likely.
An interview with George Fischer, Portfolio Manager of Spartan Ohio
Municipal Income Fund
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM, GEORGE?
N.L. For the 12-month period that ended December 31, 1997, the fund
had a total return of 8.74%. To get a sense of how the fund did
relative to its competitors, the Ohio municipal debt funds average
returned 8.16% for the same 12-month period, according to Lipper
Analytical Services. Additionally, the Lehman Brothers Ohio 4 Plus
Year Municipal Bond Index - which tracks the state's municipal market
- - returned 9.03% for the same one-year period.
Q. WHAT WERE SOME OF THE FUND'S BEST PERFORMERS DURING THE YEAR?
N.L. It was a fairly strong period for all municipal bonds, but bonds
with credit ratings of Baa, as judged by Moody's Investors Service,
performed particularly well. As a quick review, most municipal bonds
are assigned a credit rating by the municipal bond credit rating
agencies - including Moody's and Standard & Poor's. A bond's rating
serves as an indication of its issuer's ability to repay its debt.
Generally speaking, the lower a bond's credit rating, the higher its
yield. That's because a higher yield compensates investors for a
greater amount of credit risk - that is, the risk that an issuer will
default on its debt. Bonds with a Baa-rating are deemed
investment-grade, but are in the lowest tier of the investment-grade
category. Their attractive yields relative to higher-rated bonds,
coupled with their investment-grade status, kept demand for Baa-rated
bonds strong during the year. Moreover, the supply of Baa-rated bonds
was rather tight during the period. It was a classic situation where
strong demand pushed up against limited supply, forcing Baa-rated bond
prices higher.
Q. WERE THERE ANY DISAPPOINTMENTS?
N.L. I can't really single out any individual holding or sector of the
municipal market that proved to be disappointing. However, I would say
it was a difficult period in which to find what I believed to be
attractively priced bonds. I like to buy bonds when I think they're
priced below what I believe to be their true value, with the idea that
they will eventually reach that full value. A bond can become cheap
relative to its full value when certain of its characteristics -
including credit quality, maturity, sector classification and others -
fall out of investors' favor. But because the supply of municipals was
limited and demand for them was strong, Ohio bonds were fairly, and in
many cases, expensively priced.
Q. AS THE FEAR OF INFLATION DIMINISHED DURING THE PAST SIX MONTHS,
BOND YIELDS FELL AND BOND PRICES ROSE. DID YOU ALTER THE FUND'S
HOLDINGS IN ORDER TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THAT RALLY?
N.L. No. I continued to keep the fund's duration - or sensitivity to
changes in interest rates - neutral. By that I mean that I didn't buy
or sell bonds based on where I thought interest rates were headed.
Rather, I structured the fund to match the market for Ohio municipal
bonds as represented by the Lehman Brothers Ohio 4 Plus Year Municipal
Bond Index. In my view, the last several weeks of the period served as
a useful reminder that it isn't easy to predict the direction of
interest rates - and ultimately bond yields and bond prices - with
consistency over a meaningful period of time. Few investors -
including many professionals - foresaw the currency and economic
problems that surfaced in Southeast Asia at the end of the year, not
to mention that they would have such a positive effect on the U.S.
bond market. Rather than spend time trying to anticipate such
unforeseen events, I invested in those securities that I thought would
perform well given any market environment.
Q. WHAT'S AHEAD FOR THE MUNICIPAL MARKET?
N.L. Toward the end of the period, the bond markets became volatile in
response to uncertainty created by currency and market instability in
Southeast Asia. In my view, we're likely to see volatility hanging
around until those problems are sorted through. That said, my outlook
for the municipal market is reasonably favorable. At the end of the
period, municipals were attractively priced compared to Treasury
bonds, suggesting that they offer good value and may have room to
outpace Treasuries in the months to come.

MANAGER ONLY THROUGH THE END OF THE PERIOD OF THE REPORT AS STATED ON

NORM LIND ON HIS INVESTMENT
STYLE:
"My strategy is the same as the
previous manager of the fund. I
focus on adding value through
individual security selection,
rather than trying to predict where
interest rates are headed. As a
result, I will continue to match the
fund's duration - which measures
how sensitive its share price is to
changes in interest rates - with
that of the intermediate municipal
market, as tracked by the Lehman
Brothers Michigan Municipal
Bond Index. By keeping the fund's
duration `neutral' to the market,
its performance won't be
compromised because I made an
incorrect judgment about the
direction of interest rates.
"Bonds can become cheap if they
fall out of investors' favor as a
result of their credit quality,
maturity or other factor. In
choosing individual securities, I
look for bonds that I think are
priced cheap relative to what I
believe to be their fair value, with
the intention of holding them until
I believe they've reached full
value."

FIDELITY OHIO MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET FUND
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
To evaluate a money market fund's historical performance, you can look
at either total return or yield. Total return reflects the change in
the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of the fund's
dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of
securities that have grown in value). Yield measures the income paid
by a fund. Since a money market fund tries to maintain a $1 share
price, yield is an important measure of performance. If Fidelity had
not reimbursed certain fund expenses the life of fund total returns
would have been lower.

FIDELITY OH MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET FUND 3.29% 15.29% 33.99%
OHIO TAX-FREE MONEY MARKET FUNDS AVERAGE 3.23% 15.13% 32.46%
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show the fund's performance in percentage
terms over a set period - in this case, one year, five years or since
the fund started on August 29, 1989. For example, if you had invested
$1,000 in a fund that had a 5% return over the past year, the value of
your investment would be $1,050. To measure how the fund's performance
stacked up against its peers, you can compare it to the Ohio tax-free
money market funds average, which reflects the performance of Ohio
tax-free money market funds with similar objectives tracked by IBC
Financial Data, Inc. The past one year average represents a peer group
of 16 mutual funds. (The periods covered by IBC Financial Data, Inc.
numbers are the closest available match to those covered by the fund.)

YIELD refers to the income paid by the fund over a given period.
Yields for money market funds are usually for seven-day periods,
expressed as annual percentage rates. A yield that assumes income
earned is reinvested or compounded is called an effective yield. The
chart above shows the fund's current seven-day yield at quarterly
intervals over the past year. You can compare these yields to the Ohio
tax-free money market funds average as tracked by IBC Financial Data,
Inc. Or you can look at the fund's tax-equivalent yield, which is
based on a combined effective 1997 federal and state income tax rate
of 40.61%. A portion of the fund's income may be subject to the
alternative minimum tax.
A MONEY MARKET FUND'S TOTAL RETURNS AND YIELDS WILL VARY, AND REFLECT
PAST RESULTS RATHER THAN PREDICT FUTURE PERFORMANCE.
COMPARING
PERFORMANCE
Yields on tax-free investments
are usually lower than yields on
taxable investments. However, a
straight comparison between the
two may be misleading because
it ignores the way taxes reduce
taxable returns. Tax-equivalent
yield - the yield you'd have to
earn on a similar taxable
investment to match the tax-free
yield - makes the comparison
more meaningful. Keep in mind
that the U.S. government
neither insures nor guarantees a
money market fund. And there
is no assurance that a money
fund will maintain a $1 share
price.

FIDELITY OHIO MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET FUND
FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
An interview with Scott Orr, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Ohio
Municipal Money Market Fund
Q. SCOTT, WHAT WAS THE INVESTING ENVIRONMENT LIKE OVER THE PAST 12
MONTHS?
N.L. The market started the year in flux, as uncertainty prevailed
about what course the Federal Reserve Board would take in its monetary
policy. While economic growth was strong, inflation remained subdued.
In February and March, however, signs that the economy was growing at
an even stronger clip changed market sentiment. Rising expectations of
a rate increase to slow growth and head off inflation culminated in
the Fed's announcement at its March 25 meeting that it had increased
the fed funds rate - the rate banks charge each other for overnight
loans - from 5.25% to 5.50%. For the next month or so, the market
expected the Fed to continue to raise rates. However, at its May
meeting, the Fed decided to hold off because economic growth had
moderated and inflation was still benign.
Q. WHAT'S HAPPENED SINCE THEN?
N.L. Economic activity has been moderate to fairly strong, but
inflation has remained in check. The Fed has opted to keep rates
unchanged, but remains biased toward raising rates if signs of
stronger inflation emerge. However, economic and market turmoil hit
Southeast Asia in late October and continued through the end of the
year. As a result, late in the period, most market participants felt
the Fed would wait until the market disruption in Asia moderates
before deciding if a strong U.S. domestic economy still warrants a
rate increase. In fact, at the end of the year, some market observers
were actually predicting that the Fed would lower rates in an effort
to avoid deflation caused by, among other things, the intensifying
competition of cheaper Asian goods.
Q. WHAT WAS THE FUND'S STRATEGY DURING THIS PERIOD?
N.L. The Ohio market is unique because there typically is a steady
supply of one-year, fixed-rate Ohio municipal notes coming to market
throughout the year. To take advantage of this situation, I bought
these notes regularly, laddering the maturities so that as some
one-year notes matured, I purchased more to replace them. This
strategy keeps the fund's average maturity a bit longer than might be
expected in some of the market environments we've seen. For example,
during much of 1997, I was expecting the Fed to raise rates. In most
cases, that would mean the fund would have a shorter average maturity,
holding more variable-rate securities whose interest rates would float
upward in a rising rate environment. However, the plentiful supply of
Ohio fixed-rate notes made it more worthwhile to purchase these
one-year notes that were offering more attractive yields than those
offered in the shorter-term, variable-rate part of the market. The
fund's average maturity started the period at 70 days. I reduced the
average maturity to 50 days in March when expectations for a Fed rate
hike peaked. At the end of the period, I moved the fund's average
maturity back out to 62 days - a neutral to slightly longer position,
reflecting my expectations of fairly stable rates for the next few
months.
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM?
N.L. The fund's seven-day yield on December 31, 1997, was 3.51%,
compared to 3.47% 12 months ago. The more recent seven-day yield was
the equivalent of a 5.91% taxable rate of return for Ohio investors in
the 40.61% combined state and federal income tax bracket. Through
December 31, 1997, the fund's 12-month total return was 3.29%,
compared to 3.23% for the Ohio tax-free money market funds average,
according to IBC Financial Data, Inc.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK?
N.L. I think the Fed still is concerned about inflation and would be
biased toward raising the fed funds rate if the economy doesn't slow
down. However, some recent economic indicators suggest that a slowdown
seems to be happening, with the continuing Asian turmoil having a
dampening effect on the economy. As a result, the Fed may not have to
raise rates to slow growth and head off inflation.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended December 31, 1997
6. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Spartan Ohio Municipal Income Fund (the income fund)(formerly Fidelity
Ohio Municipal Income Fund) is a fund of Fidelity Municipal Trust.
Fidelity Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund (the money market fund) is a
fund of Fidelity Municipal Trust II. Each trust is registered under
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an
open-end management investment company. Fidelity Municipal Trust and
Fidelity Municipal Trust II (the trusts) are organized as a
Massachusetts business trust and a Delaware business trust,
respectively. Each fund is authorized to issue an unlimited number of
shares. 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 money market fund and the income fund:
SECURITY VALUATION.
INCOME FUND. 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. 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.
Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less
for which quotations are not readily available are valued at amortized
cost or original cost plus accrued interest, both of which approximate
current value.
MONEY MARKET FUND. As permitted under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act, and
certain conditions therein, securities are valued initially at cost
and thereafter assume a constant amortization to maturity of any
discount or premium.
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under
Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, each fund is not subject to
income taxes to the extent that it distributes substantially all of
its taxable income for the fiscal year. The schedules of investments
include 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. For the money market fund, accretion of discount represents
unrealized gain until realized at the time of a security disposition
or maturity.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of each trust can be directly attributed to a
fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned
among 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.
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES - CONTINUED
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS -
CONTINUED
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 future transactions, market discount, capital loss
carryforwards and losses deferred due to futures. The income fund also
utilized earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on
redemption of shares as a part of the dividends paid deduction for
income tax purposes.
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 interest income and
realized and unrealized gain (loss). Distributions in excess of net
realized gain (loss) on investments may include temporary book and tax
basis differences that will reverse in a subsequent period. Any
taxable gain remaining at fiscal year end is distributed in the
following year.
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.
7. OPERATING POLICIES.
WHEN-ISSUED SECURITIES. Each fund may purchase or sell securities on a
when-issued basis. Payment and delivery may take place a month or more
after the date of the transaction. The price of the underlying
securities is fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The
market values of the securities purchased on a when-issued or forward
commitment basis are identified as such in each applicable fund's
schedule of investments. Each fund may receive compensation for
interest forgone in the purchase of a when-issued security. With
respect to purchase commitments, each fund identifies securities as
segregated in its custodial records with a value at least equal to the
amount of the commitment. The payables and receivables associated with
the purchases and sales of when-issued securities having the same
settlement date and broker are offset. When-issued securities that
have been purchased from and sold to different brokers are reflected
as both payables and receivables in the applicable statements of
assets and liabilities under the caption "Delayed delivery." Losses
may arise due to changes in the market value of the underlying
securities, if the counterparty does not perform under the contract,
or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political,
economic, or other factors.
FUTURES CONTRACTS. The income fund may use futures contracts to manage
its exposure to the bond market and to fluctuations in interest rates.
Buying futures tends to increase the fund's exposure to the underlying
instrument, while selling futures tends to decrease the fund's
exposure to the underlying instrument or hedge other fund investments.
Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess
of the futures variation margin reflected in the Statement of Assets
and
2. OPERATING POLICIES -
CONTINUED
FUTURES CONTRACTS - CONTINUED
Liabilities. The underlying face amount at value of any open futures
contracts at period end is shown in the schedule of investments under
the caption "Futures Contracts." This amount reflects each contract's
exposure to the underlying instrument at period end. Losses may arise
from changes in the value of the underlying instruments or if the
counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms. Gains
(losses) are realized upon the expiration or closing of the futures
contracts. Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price
established each day by the board of trade or exchange on which they
are traded.
8. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS.
INCOME FUND. Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term
securities, aggregated $56,222,265 and $62,051,685, respectively.
The market value of futures contracts opened and closed during the
period amounted to $30,264,204 and $22,553,002, respectively.
9. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
MANAGEMENT FEE. As each 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. The annual individual
fund fee rate is .25%. 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. For the period, the management fee was equivalent to
an annual rate of .39% of average net assets for the income and money
market funds.
SUB-ADVISER FEE. As the money market fund's investment sub-adviser,
Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (formerly FMR Texas Inc.),
a wholly owned subsidiary of FMR, receives a fee from FMR of 50% of
the management fee payable to FMR. The fee is paid prior to any
voluntary expense reimbursements which may be in effect.
TRANSFER AGENT AND ACCOUNTING FEES. UMB Bank, n.a. (UMB) is the
custodian and transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the funds.
UMB has entered into a sub-contract with Fidelity Service Company,
Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, under which FSC performs the
activities associated with the funds' transfer and shareholder
servicing agent and accounting functions. The funds pay 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
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES -

TRANSFER AGENT AND ACCOUNTING FEES - CONTINUED
month plus out-of-pocket expenses. For the period, FSC received
transfer agent and accounting fees amounting to $450,875 and $166,043
for the income fund and $499,685 and $73,517 for the money market
fund, respectively.
For the period, the transfer agent fees were equivalent to an annual
rate of .12% and .15% of average net assets for the income fund and
the money market fund, respectively.
Money Market shareholders participating in the Fidelity Ultra Service
Account(registered trademark) Program (the Program) paid a $5.00
monthly fee to Fidelity Brokerage Services, Inc. (FBSI), an affiliate
of FMR, for performing services associated with the Program. For the
period, fees paid to FBSI by shareholders participating in the Program
amounted to $4,710. Effective September 1, 1997, the monthly fee was
eliminated.
10. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS.
Effective April 1, 1997, FMR voluntarily agreed to reimburse the
income fund's operating expenses (excluding interest, taxes, brokerage
commissions and extraordinary expenses) above an annual rate of .55%
of the fund's average net assets. For the period, the reimbursement
reduced the fund's expenses by $68,123.
In addition, each fund has entered into arrangements with its
custodian and transfer agent whereby credits realized as a result of
uninvested cash balances were used to reduce a portion of the fund's
expenses. During the period, the income fund's custodian fees were
reduced by $991 and the money market fund's custodian and transfer
agent fees were reduced by $208 and $5,220, respectively, under these
arrangements.
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Trustees of Fidelity Municipal Trust and Fidelity Municipal
Trust II and the Shareholders of Spartan Ohio Municipal Income Fund
(formerly Fidelity Ohio Municipal Income Fund) and Fidelity Ohio
Municipal Money Market Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities
of Fidelity Municipal Trust: Spartan Ohio Municipal Income Fund

schedules of portfolio investments, as of December 31, 1997, and the
related statements of operations for the year then ended, the
statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the
period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five
years in the period then ended. These financial statements and
financial highlights are the responsibility of the fund's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included
confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 1997 by
correspondence with the custodian and brokers. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights
referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of Fidelity Municipal Trust: Spartan Ohio Municipal
Income Fund (formerly Fidelity Ohio Municipal Income Fund) and
Fidelity Municipal Trust II: Fidelity Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund
as of December 31, 1997, the results of their operations for the year

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
(PHOTO_OF_EDWARD_C_JOHNSON_3D)DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although financial turmoil in Pacific Basin countries was a catalyst
for significant volatility in U.S. markets throughout the fourth
quarter, the Standard & Poor's 500 Index rose more than 33% in 1997,
about three times its historical annual average. Meanwhile, bond
markets - primarily influenced by a relatively steady flow of positive
news on the inflation front - continued to post solid returns as the
year drew to a close.
While it's impossible to predict the future direction of the markets
with any degree of certainty, there are certain basic principles that
can help investors plan for their future needs.
The longer your investment time frame, the less likely it is that you
will be affected by short-term market volatility. A 10-year investment
horizon appropriate for saving for a college education, for example,
enables you to weather market cycles in a long-term fund, which may
have a higher risk potential, but also has a higher potential rate of
return.
An intermediate-length fund could make sense if your investment
horizon is two to four years, while 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. These
funds seek income and a stable share price by investing in
high-quality, short-term investments. Of course, it's important to
remember that there is no assurance that a money market fund will
achieve its goal of maintaining a stable net asset value of $1.00 per
share, and that these types of funds are neither insured nor
guaranteed by any agency of the U.S. government.
Finally, no matter what your time horizon or portfolio diversity, it
makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan, investing a
certain amount of money in a fund at the same time each month or
quarter and periodically reviewing your overall portfolio. By doing
so, you won't get caught up in the excitement of a rapidly rising
market, nor will you buy all your shares at market highs. While this
strategy - known as dollar cost averaging - won't assure a profit or
protect you from a loss in a declining market, it should help you
lower the average cost of your purchases.
If you have questions, please call us at 1-800-544-8888. We are
available 24 hours a day, seven days a week to provide you the
information you need to make the investments that are right for you.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d
SPARTAN PENNSYLVANIA MUNICIPAL INCOME FUND
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. Total return reflects the change in the value of an
investment, assuming reinvestment of the fund's dividend income and
capital gains (the profits the fund earned upon the sale of securities
that have grown in value). You can also look at the fund's income, as
measured by the fund's yield, to measure performance. If Fidelity had
not reimbursed certain fund expenses, the past ten years total returns
would have been lower.
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS

YEAR YEARS YEARS
SPARTAN PA MUNI INCOME 8.34% 42.24% 134.72%
LB PA MUNICIPAL BOND 8.76% N/A N/A
PENNSYLVANIA MUNICIPAL DEBT FUNDS AVERAGE 8.79% 39.64% 125.47%
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show the fund's performance in percentage
terms over a set period - in this case, one year, five years or 10
years. For example, if you had 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 Pennsylvania Municipal Bond Index - a total return
benchmark for Pennsylvania investment-grade municipal bonds with
maturities of at least one year. To measure how the fund's performance
stacked up against its peers, you can compare it to the Pennsylvania
municipal debt funds average, which reflects the performance of mutual
funds with similar objectives tracked by Lipper Analytical Services,
Inc. The past one year average represents a peer group of 63 mutual
funds. These benchmarks include reinvested dividends and capital
gains, if any, and exclude the effect of sales charges.

AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS take the fund's cumulative return and
show you what would have happened if the fund had performed at a
constant rate each year. (Note: Lipper calculates average annual total
returns by annualizing each fund's total return, then taking the
arithmetic average. This may produce a slightly different figure than
that obtained by averaging the cumulative total returns and
annualizing the result.)

$10,000 OVER 10 YEARS: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was
invested in Spartan Pennsylvania Municipal Income Fund on December 31,
1987. As the chart shows, by December 31, 1997, the value of the
investment would have grown to $23,472 - a 134.72% increase on the
initial investment. For comparison, look at how the Lehman Brothers
Municipal Bond Index - a total return performance benchmark for
investment-grade municipal bonds with maturities of at least one year
- - did over the same period. With dividends and capital gains, if any,
reinvested, the same $10,000 would have grown to $22,785 - a 127.85%
increase.

If you annualize this number, based on an average share price of

$10.56 over the past one 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 37.79%
combined effective 1997 federal and state tax bracket. A portion of
the fund's income may be subject to the federal alternative minimum

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
MARKET RECAP
With investor sentiment, shifting
supply/demand conditions and
Federal Reserve Board
policymaking playing integral
roles, municipal bonds managed to
perform well for the 12 months that
ended December 31, 1997. The
Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond
Index - a measure of the
municipal bond market - returned
9.19% in this period, while its
taxable counterpart - the Lehman
Brothers Aggregate Bond Index -
returned 9.65%. Through much of
the first half of 1997, the
supply/demand situation was
favorable as low supply and high
demand translated into rising muni
bond prices. The second half,
however, saw a large amount of
new issuance and while demand
remained healthy, it took time for
investors to become acclimated to
this new supply. In the interim, muni
bond prices fell. Another notable
hiccup came in March, when the
Federal Reserve Board raised a key
short-term interest rate to try to stave
off inflation. Although investors
anticipated this move, the market
nevertheless reacted negatively.
From April through
mid-September, encouraging
economic data, coupled with the
Fed's reluctance to raise rates
further, tempered concerns. In
September and October, high
supply and low demand resulted in
subpar performance for muni
bonds, but Asian volatility toward
the end of the period changed
momentum. Currency devaluations
in that region meant prices of
Asian goods would become
cheaper and that inflation was
less likely.
An interview with Jonathan Short, Portfolio Manager of Spartan
Pennsylvania Municipal Income Fund
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM, JON?
N.L. For the 12-month period that ended December 31, 1997, the fund
had a total return of 8.34%. To get a sense of how the fund did
relative to its competitors, the Pennsylvania municipal debt funds
average returned 8.79% for the same 12-month period, according to
Lipper Analytical Services. Additionally, the Lehman Brothers
Pennsylvania Municipal Bond Index - which is a broad measure of
performance of the state's municipal bond market - returned 8.76% for
the same one-year period.
Q. INTEREST RATES FELL DRAMATICALLY DURING THE FINAL SIX MONTHS OF
1997. DID YOUR INVESTMENT STRATEGY CHANGE AS A RESULT?
N.L. I didn't change strategies based on falling interest rates. I
continued to keep the fund's duration - which measures how sensitive
it is to changes in interest rates - in line with the Pennsylvania
municipal market as a whole, as reflected by the Lehman Brothers
Pennsylvania Municipal Bond Index. That said, the fund's duration fell
from about 7.1 years at the beginning of the period to about 6.6 years
at the end. The fund's duration fell along with the market, a common
occurrence in a falling interest-rate environment. As a rule, though,
I don't lengthen or shorten duration based on where I think interest
rates are headed because I don't believe that anyone can accurately
pinpoint the direction of rates with any consistency over an extended
period of time.
Q. WHAT WERE SOME OF THE FUND'S BEST PERFORMERS DURING THE PERIOD?
N.L. Non-callable bonds - which can't be redeemed by their issuers
before maturity - performed well throughout the entire year, coming on
particularly strong in the final six months of 1997. When rates fall,
as they did in the final half of the year, municipal bond issuers
often refinance their older, more expensive debt at lower interest
rates, much in the same way that homeowners do with their mortgages.
When a bond is refinanced, or called, a bond holder often is forced to
reinvest the proceeds in bonds offering lower current interest rates.
In part because interest rates were on the decline, investors sought
out non-callable bonds, creating increased demand for them and, as a
result, helping them to outpace callable bonds.
Q. WHAT WERE SOME OF THE OTHER WINNERS DURING THE PERIOD?
N.L. Bonds with credit ratings of Baa - as judged by Moody's Investors
Service - also performed well during the year. Like non-callable
bonds, there was strong demand for Baa-rated bonds - which are the
lowest-rated of bonds that Moody's deems "investment-grade." There was
strong demand for these bonds because they offered more yield than
higher-rated bonds in a period when yields were falling dramatically.
Q. WERE THERE ANY CHANGES IN THE WAY THE FUND'S HOLDINGS WERE
ALLOCATED AMONG THE VARIOUS SECTORS IN THE MUNICIPAL MARKET?
N.L. One area where there were changes was in the health care sector.
I sold some Baa-rated hospital bonds to lock in their strong 1997
performance. General obligation bonds (GOs) remained the fund's
largest sector concentration at 35.4% of investments. A GO is backed
by the full faith and credit - which includes the taxing power - of a
city, county, state or other issuer, and is repaid with general
revenue such as taxes. Thanks in part to Pennsylvania's continued
economic improvement, revenue collections were relatively strong
across much of the state throughout the period, keeping GOs attractive
throughout the year.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK?
N.L. As far as the municipal market goes, there are some factors
related to municipal bond supply and demand that I view as positive.
Specifically, I expect the supply of municipals to remain relatively
stable going into 1998. And, if history is any guide, demand for
municipals could increase in the first part of the year. If that's the
case, municipals could benefit from a supply and demand imbalance.
Furthermore, municipals presently are priced cheaply relative to U.S.
Treasuries, suggesting that municipals could outpace Treasuries in the
months to come.
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.
NORM LIND ON HIS INVESTMENT
STYLE:
"My strategy is the same as the
previous manager of the fund. I
focus on adding value through
individual security selection,
rather than trying to predict where
interest rates are headed. As a
result, I will continue to match the
fund's duration - which measures
how sensitive its share price is to
changes in interest rates - with
that of the intermediate municipal
market, as tracked by the Lehman
Brothers Michigan Municipal
Bond Index. By keeping the fund's
duration `neutral' to the market,
its performance won't be
compromised because I made an
incorrect judgment about the
direction of interest rates.
"Bonds can become cheap if they
fall out of investors' favor as a
result of their credit quality,
maturity or other factor. In
choosing individual securities, I
look for bonds that I think are
priced cheap relative to what I
believe to be their fair value, with
the intention of holding them until
I believe they've reached full
value."

DURATION SHOWS HOW MUCH A BOND FUND'S PRICE FLUCTUATES WITH CHANGES IN
COMPARABLE INTEREST RATES. IF RATES RISE 1%, FOR EXAMPLE, A FUND WITH
A FIVE-YEAR DURATION IS LIKELY TO LOSE ABOUT 5% OF ITS VALUE. OTHER
FACTORS ALSO CAN INFLUENCE A BOND FUND'S PERFORMANCE AND SHARE PRICE.
ACCORDINGLY, A BOND FUND'S ACTUAL PERFORMANCE MAY DIFFER FROM THIS
EXAMPLE.

PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
To measure a money market fund's performance, you can look at either
total return or yield. Total return reflects the change in the value
of an investment, assuming reinvestment of the fund's dividend income,
and the effect of the fund's $5 account closeout fee on an
average-sized account. Yield measures the income paid by a fund. Since
a money market fund tries to maintain a $1 share price, yield is an
important measure of performance. If Fidelity had not reimbursed
certain fund expenses, the past 10 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, one year, five years or 10
years. For example, if you had invested $1,000 in a fund that had a 5%
return over the past year, the value of your investment would be
$1,050. To measure how the fund's performance stacked up against its
peers, you can compare it to the all tax-free money market funds
average, which reflects the performance of all tax-free money market
funds tracked by IBC Financial Data, Inc. The past one year average
represents a peer group of 435 mutual funds. (The periods covered by
IBC Financial Data, Inc. numbers are the closest available match to
those covered by the fund.)

YIELD refers to the income paid by the fund over a given period.
Yields for money market funds are usually for seven-day periods,
expressed as annual percentage rates. A yield that assumes income
earned is reinvested or compounded is called an effective yield. The
chart above shows the fund's current seven-day yield at quarterly
intervals over the past year. You can compare these yields to the all
tax-free money market funds average as tracked by IBC Financial Data,
Inc. Or you can look at the fund's tax-equivalent yield, which is
based on a combined effective 1997 federal and state income tax rate
of 37.79%. A portion of the fund's income may be subject to the
federal alternative minimum tax.
A MONEY MARKET FUND'S TOTAL RETURNS AND YIELDS WILL VARY, AND REFLECT
PAST RESULTS RATHER THAN PREDICT FUTURE PERFORMANCE.
COMPARING
PERFORMANCE
Yields on tax-free investments
are usually lower than yields on
taxable investments. However, a
straight comparison between the
two may be misleading because
it ignores the way taxes reduce
taxable returns. Tax-equivalent
yield - the yield you'd have to
earn on a similar taxable
investment to match the tax-free
yield - makes the comparison
more meaningful. Keep in mind
that the U.S. government
neither insures nor guarantees a
money market fund. In fact,
there is no assurance that a
money fund will maintain a $1
share price.

SPARTAN PENNSYLVANIA MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET FUND
FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
An interview with Diane McLaughlin, Portfolio Manager of Spartan
Pennsylvania Municipal Money Market Fund
Q. WHAT HAPPENED IN THE MARKET IN 1997?
N.L. Overall, economic growth was strong throughout the year, but
unexpectedly, we didn't see much inflation. After 14 months of steady
policy, the Federal Reserve Board raised the rate banks charge each
other for overnight loans - known as the fed funds target rate - from
5.25% to 5.50% in March. Real gross domestic product (GDP) - meaning
GDP adjusted for inflation - for the first quarter of 1997 posted a
4.9% gain and May's payroll data revealed a 4.8% unemployment rate,
the lowest level since 1973. As a result, many market observers felt
the Fed would continue to raise rates. That sentiment changed,
however, after Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan's semiannual
Humphrey-Hawkins testimony before Congress in July. At that time,
Greenspan said he felt business productivity improvements in recent
years had reduced the risk of the inflationary pressures that had
previously accompanied similar periods of low unemployment.
Greenspan's comments calmed the market, but only until mid-summer,
when second-quarter real GDP was revised to 3.3% from the originally
reported 2.2% and fears of interest-rate increases resurfaced. The
market believed that continued strength in the economy and tightening
labor markets would create pricing pressures.
Q. WHAT HAPPENED AT THE END OF THE PERIOD?
N.L. Strong growth persisted. Third-quarter real GDP posted a healthy
3.1% gain and the year ended with unemployment at 4.7%. Market
sentiment changed, however, as attention shifted to the financial
crisis in Southeast Asia and its potential negative impact on U.S.
export growth. The dollar continued to appreciate against currencies
in that region, causing concern about imports from Asia becoming even
less expensive, possibly intensifying competition and further
suppressing inflation. Therefore, we ended the period at an unusual
juncture - an environment of strong growth, low inflation and
uncertainty created by the financial problems in Asia.
Q. WHAT WAS YOUR STRATEGY AS THIS UNFOLDED?
N.L. The fund's average maturity started the period at 55 days, longer
than the average of its competitors. In anticipation of higher rates,
however, the fund's average maturity was shortened significantly - to
a low of 19 days - following the fed funds
target rate hike in March. The fund did participate, however, in the
one-year market during the summer when supply became more plentiful,
resulting in more attractive yields. Despite purchases of these
securities, though, the fund's average maturity remained shorter than
its peers', ending the period at 35 days. For most of the year, my
investment focus was on the short end of the money market yield curve,
as increased supply of variable-rate demand notes made that part of
the market more attractive.
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM?
N.L. The fund's seven-day yield on December 31, 1997, was 3.66%,
compared to 3.56% 12 months ago. The latest yield was the equivalent
of a 5.88% taxable yield for Pennsylvania investors in the 37.79%
combined federal and state tax bracket. Through December 31, 1997, the
fund's 12-month total return was 3.36%, compared to 3.14% for the all
tax-free money market funds average, according to IBC Financial Data,
Inc.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK?
N.L. Unemployment averaged 4.9% in 1997 - a rate that historically
would have meant higher inflation caused by wage pressures. However,
the 1997 producer price index (PPI) - a measure of wholesale prices -
dropped 1.2%, representing the biggest one-year drop since 1986.
Similarly, the consumer price index (CPI) finished the year up 1.8%,
the slowest gain in that same 11-year time period. Little inflationary
pressure, combined with the Asian situation, make a near-term rate
hike unlikely. Given my outlook for steady Fed policy, I plan to
maintain a neutral average maturity in the near future.
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.
NORM LIND ON HIS INVESTMENT
STYLE:
"My strategy is the same as the
previous manager of the fund. I
focus on adding value through
individual security selection,
rather than trying to predict where
interest rates are headed. As a
result, I will continue to match the
fund's duration - which measures
how sensitive its share price is to
changes in interest rates - with
that of the intermediate municipal
market, as tracked by the Lehman
Brothers Michigan Municipal
Bond Index. By keeping the fund's
duration `neutral' to the market,
its performance won't be
compromised because I made an
incorrect judgment about the
direction of interest rates.
"Bonds can become cheap if they
fall out of investors' favor as a
result of their credit quality,
maturity or other factor. In
choosing individual securities, I
look for bonds that I think are
priced cheap relative to what I
believe to be their fair value, with
the intention of holding them until
I believe they've reached full
value."

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended December 31, 1997
11. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Spartan Pennsylvania Municipal Income Fund (the income fund) is a fund
of Fidelity Municipal Trust. Spartan Pennsylvania Municipal Money
Market Fund (the money market fund) is a fund of Fidelity Municipal
Trust II. Each trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment
company. Fidelity Municipal Trust and Fidelity Municipal Trust II (the
trusts) are organized as a Massachusetts business trust and a Delaware
business trust, respectively. Each fund is authorized to issue an
unlimited number of shares. 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 money market fund and the
income fund:
SECURITY VALUATION.
INCOME FUND. 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. 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.
Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less
for which quotations are not readily available are valued at amortized
cost or original cost plus accrued interest, both of which approximate
current value.
MONEY MARKET FUND. As permitted under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act, and
certain conditions therein, securities are valued initially at cost
and thereafter assume a constant amortization to maturity of any
discount or premium.
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under
Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, each fund is not subject to
income taxes to the extent that it distributes substantially all of
its taxable income for the fiscal year. The schedules of investments
include 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. For the money market fund, accretion of discount represents
unrealized gain until realized at the time of a security disposition
or maturity.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of each trust can be directly attributed to a
fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned
among 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 future transactions, market discount, capital loss
carryforwards and losses
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES - CONTINUE
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS -
CONTINUED
deferred due to futures. The income fund also utilized earnings and
profits distributed to shareholders on redemption of shares as a part
of the dividends paid deduction for income tax purposes.
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 interest income and
realized and unrealized gain (loss). Accumulated undistributed net
realized gain (loss) on investments may include temporary book and tax
basis differences that will reverse in a subsequent period. Any
taxable gain remaining at fiscal year end is distributed in the
following year.
REDEMPTION FEES. Shares held in the income fund less than 180 days are
subject to a redemption fee equal to .50% 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.
12. OPERATING POLICIES.
WHEN-ISSUED SECURITIES. Each fund may purchase or sell securities on a
when-issued basis. Payment and delivery may take place a month or more
after the date of the transaction. The price of the underlying
securities is fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The
market values of the securities purchased on a when-issued or forward
commitment basis are identified as such in each applicable fund's
schedule of investments. Each fund may receive compensation for
interest forgone in the purchase of a when-issued security. With
respect to purchase commitments, each fund identifies securities as
segregated in its custodial records with a value at least equal to the
amount of the commitment. The payables and receivables associated with
the purchases and sales of when-issued securities having the same
settlement date and broker are offset. When-issued securities that
have been purchased from and sold to different brokers are reflected
as both payables and receivables in the applicable statements of
assets and liabilities under the caption "Delayed delivery." Losses
may arise due to changes in the market value of the underlying
securities, if the counterparty does not perform under the contract,
or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political,
economic, or other factors.
FUTURES CONTRACTS. The income fund may use futures contracts to manage
its exposure to the bond market and to fluctuations in interest rates.
Buying futures tends to increase the fund's exposure to the underlying
instrument, while selling futures tends to decrease the fund's
exposure to the underlying instrument or hedge other fund investments.
Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess
of the futures variation margin reflected in the Statement of Assets
and Liabilities. The underlying face amount at value of any open
futures contracts at period end is shown in the schedule of
investments under the caption "Futures Contracts." This amount
reflects each contract's exposure to the underlying instrument at
2. OPERATING POLICIES -
CONTINUED
FUTURES CONTRACTS - CONTINUED
period end. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the
underlying instruments or if the counterparties do not perform under
the contracts' terms. Gains (losses) are realized upon the expiration
or closing of the futures contracts. Futures contracts are valued at
the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or
exchange on which they are traded.
13. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS.
INCOME FUND. Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term
securities, aggregated $67,454,469 and $88,733,959, respectively.
The market value of futures contracts purchased and closed during the
period amounted to $62,307,024 and $64,892,071, respectively.
14. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
MANAGEMENT FEE. As each fund's investment adviser, Fidelity Management
& Research Company (FMR) pays all expenses, except the compensation of
the non-interested Trustees and certain exceptions such as interest,
taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses. FMR receives
a fee that is computed daily at an annual rate of .55% and .50% of
average net assets for the income and money market funds,
respectively.
FMR also bears the cost of providing shareholder services to each
fund. To offset the cost of providing these services, FMR or its
affiliates collected certain transaction fees from shareholders which
amounted to $990 and $6,257 for the income and money market funds,
respectively. Effective April 1, 1997, these transaction fees were
eliminated for the income fund.
SUB-ADVISER FEE. As the money market fund's investment sub-adviser,
Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (formerly FMR Texas Inc.),
a wholly owned subsidiary of FMR, receives a fee from FMR of 50% of
the management fee payable to FMR. The fee is paid prior to any
voluntary expense reimbursements which may be in effect.
15. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS.
FMR has entered into arrangements on behalf of each fund with the
fund's custodian and transfer agent whereby credits realized as a
result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce a portion of
the fund's expenses. During the period, the fund's expenses were
reduced by $347 and $8,083 for the income and money market funds,
respectively, under these arrangements.
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Trustees of Fidelity Municipal Trust and Fidelity Municipal
Trust II and the Shareholders of Spartan Pennsylvania Municipal Income
Fund and Spartan Pennsylvania Municipal Money Market Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities
of Fidelity Municipal Trust: Spartan Pennsylvania Municipal Income
Fund and Fidelity Municipal Trust II: Spartan Pennsylvania Municipal
Money Market Fund, including the schedules of portfolio investments,
as of December 31, 1997, and the related statements of operations for
the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each
of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights
for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial
statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the
fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements and financial highlights based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included
confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 1997 by
correspondence with the custodian and brokers. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights
referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of Fidelity Municipal Trust: Spartan Pennsylvania
Municipal Income Fund and Fidelity Municipal Trust II: Spartan
Pennsylvania Municipal Money Market Fund as of December 31, 1997, the
results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in
their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended,
and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period
then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.
