This page is a list of Catalan saints, blesseds, venerables, and Servants of God, as recognized by the Roman Catholic Church. These people were born, died, or lived their religious life in the Autonomous Community of Catalonia.
The history of the Catholic Church in Catalonia may date back to the earliest times, with visits of Paul and James. (The apparition of the Blessed Virgin to Saint James (Our Lady of the Pillar) occurred in neighboring Aragon.) The written record dates to the third century, with the Acts of the Martyrdom of the bishop Fructuosus and his deacons Augurius and Eulogius.

The patron saint of Catalonia is Saint George; there he is known as Sant Jordi.
Other people have been canonized saints who, while Catalan by language or ancestry, were not from the modern community of Catalonia. An example is Junípero Serra. Also of interest, from the culturally and linguistically Catalan nation of Andorra, would be Mary as Our Lady of Meritxell.
