Târnăveni (Romanian pronunciation: [tɨrnəˈvenʲ], historically Diciosânmartin; Hungarian: Dicsőszentmárton, Hungarian pronunciation: [ˈdit͡ʃøːsɛntmaːrton] ⓘ; German: Sankt Martin, earlier Marteskirch) is a city in Mureș County, central Romania. It lies on the Târnava Mică River in central Transylvania. The city administers three villages: Bobohalma (Bábahalma), Botorca (Őrhegy), and Cuștelnic (Csüdőtelke); the last was part of Gănești Commune until 2002.
In Romanian, it was previously known as Diciosânmartin, then Târnava-Sânmărtin.
