Venantius of Salona (also Wigand; died 259), was a Christian saint, martyr and Bishop of Salona in Dalmatia, active in the later half of the third century AD.
Originally buried in Dalmatia, his body was brought to Rome by Pope John IV in 640 and his relics were in the baptistery of the Lateran Basilica, which also contains a mosaic of him.
Unlike other saints he was not found in early martyrologies, appearing for the first time in a twelfth-century Hungarian liturgical calendar.
