The Patriarchate of Venice ({{Langx|it|Patriarcato di Venezia}}; {{langx|la|Patriarchatus Venetiarum}}), also sometimes called the Archdiocese of Venice, is a patriarchate of the Latin Church of the Catholic Church, located in the Metropolitan City of Venice. Its episcopal seat is in the Cathedral Basilica of St. Mark in Venice.

One of only four extant patriarchates in the Latin Church, its ordinary is the Patriarch of Venice, who is traditionally created a cardinal by the pope. Immediately upon installation in office, however, the Patriarch of Venice has the right to wear scarlet vesture (like a cardinal), whether or not he has yet been elevated to the College of Cardinals.

As a metropolitan, the Patriarch of Venice is the metropolitan of the Ecclesiastical Province of Venice. Its suffragan dioceses include Adria-Rovigo, Belluno-Feltre, Chioggia, Concordia-Pordenone, Padova, Treviso, Verona, Vicenza, and Vittorio Veneto.[http://www.catholic-hierarchy.org/diocese/dvene.html Archdiocese of Venezia], Catholic-Hierarchy.org, url accessed May 22, 2006

In 1451 the Patriarchate of Grado was merged with the Bishopric of Castello and Venice to form the Patriarchate of Venice.
