Antonín Cyril Stojan (22 May 1851 – 29 September 1923) was a Czech Roman Catholic prelate who served as the Archbishop of Olomouc from 1921 until his death. He was a politician prior to this and served in several political capacities while also serving as a pastor in several parishes where he strengthened social and charitable activities.
He was titled as Venerable on 14 June 2016 after Pope Francis confirmed his heroic virtue on the path to sainthood.
