La citadelle de Saint-Martin-de-Ré est un ouvrage militaire édifié de 1690 afin de protéger l'île de Ré. Elle est l'un des principaux monuments historiques de la ville de Saint-Martin-de-Ré, dans le département de la Charente-Maritime, dans le sud-ouest de la France.

En 1873 elle fut transformée en dépôt pour le regroupement des prisonniers destinés à être envoyés aux bagnes et fut pendant 65 ans (de 1873 à 1938), l'unique point de regroupement des condamnés aux travaux forcés, avant leur départ, par bateau (La Loire, ou Le Martinière), vers le bagne de la Guyane française ou le bagne de Nouvelle-Calédonie.
