Pietro Participazio (reigned 939–942)[1] was, by tradition, the twentieth doge of the Republic of Venice.

History

[edit]

He was son of the eighteenth Doge, Orso II Participazio.[2]

Pietro's reign appears to have been entirely uneventful; he died three years after his election and was buried in the church of Saint Felice in Ammiana, where his father was buried before him.
