Bartolomeo Gandolfi (died 1471) was an Italian Roman Catholic prelate who served as Bishop of Faenza (1463–1471).[1][2]

Biography

Already by 1437, Bartolomeo di Francisci Gandolfi was a Canon of the Cathedral Chapter and iudex capituli. By June 1463, he is recorded as Archpriest of the plebs of Corleto.[3]

Bishop Alessandro Stampetti da Sarnano of Faenza died in February 1463. The Cathedral Chapter duly met and, on 20 February, elected Federico Manfredi, a Canon of the cathedral and the son of Astorgio II, Lord of Faenza. Pope Pius II, however, refused to ratify the election of a young man who was only twenty-two years old, and quashed the election. On 10 April 1463, Bartolomeo Gandolfi was appointed by Pope Pius II as Bishop of Faenza, at the suggestion of Astorgio II.[4]

On 27 November 1463, he was consecrated bishop by Giacomo Paladini, Bishop of Forlì.[2]

He died in 1470, between 19 July and 21 December. His successor, Federico Manfredi, was still only a Protonotary Apostolic in a document of 19 July 1470, but already Bishop of Faenza, according to a document dated 21 December 1470.[5]
