Giovanni Tiepolo (Latin: Ioannes Thiepolus; 12 April 1570 – 7 May 1631) was Patriarch of Venice from 1619 to his death.

[1] As soon as he was of age, he attempted to pursue a political career as was usual in noble Venetian families, but without success.

[1] On 10 October 1619, after the patriarch of Venice Francesco Vendramin died, the Venetian Senate elected Tiepolo as his successor.

[1] He also compiled as critic catalogue of Venetian saints and blessed and made their images to be painted in the church of the Madonna dell'Orto.

[1] However for Holy Week of 1631, he forbade public events and he forced the regular clergy to assist the plague-ridden.
