Renato Ziggiotti was a Roman Catholic priest of the Salesians of Don Bosco, who was the fifth Rector Major of that order, serving between 1952 and 1965.

He was the last Salesian Superior before the Second Vatican Council and the first Superior to resign the position in the Salesian history - all his predecessors died incumbent. He was also the first Rector Major to visit all the countries where there were Salesians present in the five continents, at a time when international transport was limited.
