Bartolomeo I della Scala (died 7 or 8 March 1304) was lord of Verona from 1301, a member of the Scaliger family and protector of Dante during his exile from Florence.{{Cite web|title=Della Scala family {{!}} Italian family|url=https://www.britannica.com/topic/della-Scala-family|website=Encyclopedia Britannica|language=en|access-date=2020-05-17}}

Bartolomeo was a son of Alberto I della Scala, who during his rule (1277–1301) established Scaliger rule over Verona as a hereditary lordship.{{sfn|Mennini Ippolito|1986|loc=cols. 676–677}} Possibly as early as 1293, Alberto associated Bartolomeo with him in ruling the city. As a result, when Alberto died in 1301, Bartolomeo immediately succeeded him as "Captain and Rector" of the gastalds and people of Verona.{{sfn|Mennini Ippolito|1986|loc=cols. 676–677}} During his brief rule, Bartolomeo further consolidated Scaliger control, depriving the council of the guilds from its last remaining authority.{{sfn|Mennini Ippolito|1986|loc=col. 677}}

He had married in 1291 Costanza di Antiochia, daughter of Corrado d'Antiochia.

Bartolomeo died on 7 or 8 March 1304 and was succeeded by his brother Alboino.{{sfn|Mennini Ippolito|1986|loc=col. 677}}
