Bernardo Navagero (Venice 1507 – 13 April 1565 Verona) was a Venetian ambassador and a cardinal of the Roman Catholic Church.

Life

Venetian patrician, son of Gianluigi Navagero and Lucrezia Agostini, he studied at the University of Padua. He married Istriana Lando, granddaughter of the doge Pietro Lando, but she died young.

He was Venetian resident ambassador at the courts of emperor Charles V (1543–46), Suleiman the Magnificent (1550-52) and pope Paul IV (1555–58), and he attended the Council of Ten (1552).

On 26 February 1561 he was named cardinal by pope Pius IV, and he was bishop of Verona from 1562 until his death. In 1563 he was legatus a latere at the council of Trent.

He died in Verona on 13 April 1565, leaving his episcopate to his nephew Agostino Valier.

gollark: Which is what I said, yes.

gollark: Oh yes, that's quite cool.

gollark: Did you know? Currently, one of our markets is trading every particle in the universe, and all combinations of particles in the universe, and all possible future particles in the universe, and all possible derivatives of them.

gollark: You mean hasn't not submitted?
