Giacomo Salomoni, OP (1231 – 31 May 1314) was an Italian Catholic priest and a professed member of the Order of Preachers.[1] He was a noted ascetic known for being prone to ecstatic states on a frequent basis; he served as a prior of several convents until he settled in Forlì, where he remained until his death.[2]

Salomoni's beatification was approved in mid-1526.
