In the centrosymmetric dinuclear title compound, [Mn2Cl4(C15H14N4)2(H2O)2], the MnII atom is coordinated by an N,N'-bidentate ligand, a water molecule, a terminal chloride ion and two bridging chloride ions in a distorted MnN2OCl3 octahedral geometry. The Mn...Mn separation is 3.6563 (9) Å. In the crystal structure, O-H...N and O-H...Cl hydrogen bonds help to establish the packing.
