'''Saint Bernardo Tolomei''' (10 May 1272 – 20 August 1348), born '''Giovanni Tolomei''', was an [[Italy|Italian]] theologian who founded the {{Wiki|Olivetans|Olivetan Order}}.
 
In regards to his heritage, the Tolomei family was considered one of the most outstanding families in [[Siena]]. Although initially a jurist, Bernardo eventually founded the Olivetan Order, a Benedictine monastic order, in 1313; the [[Monte Oliveto Maggiore]] was built in [[Tuscany]] as the mother-house of the order.
 
The monastery owned most of the land in the Siena region, which was overseen by the order's private government. By the time of Bernardo's death, the monastery was left in a lucrative state thanks to his background as a jurist.
 
==Trivia==
*Bernardo took his name out of admiration for [[Bernard de Clairvaux]], a [[France|French]] abbot and notable [[Templars|Templar]].
