Murlo is a comune (municipality) in the Province of Siena in the Italian region Tuscany, located about {{convert|70|km|mi}} south of Florence and about {{convert|20|km|mi}} south of Siena.

Murlo borders the following municipalities: Buonconvento, Civitella Paganico, Montalcino, Monteroni d'Arbia, Monticiano, Sovicille.

The area is believed to have been the site of a significant Etruscan settlement. In 2007, analysis of the mitochondrial DNA of living individuals from Murlo had strong links to people from West Asia, compared to other Italian samples. This lent credence to Herodotus's assertion that the Etruscans had migrated to Europe from Anatolia.

The hill of Poggio Civitate was an ancient settlement located in the commune and currently the site of archaeological investigations.[2]

From 1189 to 1778 it was the seat of the homonym "Feudo vescovile di Murlo", ecclesiastical signoria governed by the bishop of Siena, of which remains the palace and the adjacent church of San Fortunato, where the Bishop celebrated religious rites. [3]

Most of the municipal population resides in Vescovado and Casciano. Vescovado is also home to the municipal house.
