Seraphin of Montegranaro, O.F.M. Cap. (Italian: Serafino da Montegranaro) († 1604), was an Italian Capuchin friar who is honored as a Saint by the Catholic Church. He was canonized by Pope Clement XIII on 16 July 1767. In the papal bull of canonization, the illiterate and physically clumsy Capuchin was acclaimed as a person who "knew how to read and understand the great book of life which is our Savior, Jesus Christ. For that reason, he deserves to be listed among Christ's principal disciples." Seraphin's feast day is celebrated on 12 October. His tomb is in the Capuchin friary at Ascoli Piceno. A church at San Lorenzo Nuovo is dedicated to him.
