The Bacchiglione (Latin: Medoacus Minor, Little Medoacus) is a river that flows in Veneto, northern Italy. It rises in the Alps and empties about 140 km later into the Brenta River near Chioggia. It flows through and past a number of cities, including Vicenza and Padua. It acted for many centuries as a significant waterway up to Vicenza, above which it ceases to be navigable. It was connected in the 19th century to the Adige by a canal.
