Giovinazzo (Barese: Scevenàzze) is a town, comune (municipality) and former bishopric within the Metropolitan City of Bari, Apulia region, southeastern Italy.

It was a small fortified centre of the Romans, who called it Natolium, maybe built on the ruins of the Peucete Netium which was destroyed during the Punic Wars.

It became later a flourishing commercial centre, that had trading connections with Venice.

In the neighbourhood is Castel del Monte, one of the most famous castles in southern Italy, built during the 1240s by Frederick II Hohenstaufen.
