The ''Constitutiones Sirmondianae'' are a collection of Roman imperial constitutions assembled in southern Gaul, probably in the region of Lyon, between 425 and 438.

The Constitutiones Sirmondianae are a collection of Roman imperial constitutions assembled in southern Gaul, probably in the region of Lyon, between 425 and 438. All constitutions deal with ecclesiastical matters. The collection takes its name from Sirmond, who identified it in 1631. The recent supposition that the constitutions are forgeries made during the reign of Charles Martel and are contemporary with the forged Donation of Constantine is generally rejected for a number of reasons, one of which is the age of the manuscripts. Transmissions of the Constitutiones vary somewhat. The form containing 16 constitutions, which Theodor Mommsen edited, is the basis for the present analysis (CS). It is found in two 7th century Burgundian manuscripts: Sankt Petersburg, Publičnaja Bibliotheka im. M. E. Saltykova-Ščedrina F. v. II. 3 / Berlin, SBPK, Phill. 1745 (= CLA 11 **1061) and in the 9th/10th century Burgundian Ms Paris, BnF, lat. 1452.
