Sallins (Irish: Na Solláin) is a town in County Kildare, Ireland, situated 3.5 km north of the town centre of Naas, from which it is separated by the M7 motorway. Sallins is the anglicised name of Na Solláin which means "The Willows". According to the official CSO Census of 2016 Sallins has a population of 5,849. The town expanded rapidly between the 2002 and 2016 census, almost doubling the population in those years. It is the 9th largest settlement in Kildare and the 78th largest in Ireland. Sallins grew as a result of its position on both the Grand Canal and the Dublin to Cork railway line. Historically, the major employers in the town were Odlum's Flour Mills and a meat factory, although both have now closed. Theobald Wolfe Tone is buried near Sallins in Bodenstown graveyard. Each summer, Irish Republicans of various political and paramilitary groupings congregate at Sallins to hold commemorations at Tone's grave.
