Guglielmo Borghetti (born 25 March 1954) is an Italian prelate of the Catholic Church and the current Bishop of Albenga-Imperia. He is the former Bishop of Pitigliano-Sovana-Orbetello.
Guglielmo Borghetti was born on 25 March 1954 in the frazione of Avenza, a hamlet of Carrara, which is a comune of Tuscany, Italy. After attending the Liceo Classico Emanuele Repetti in Carrara, he studied at the University of Pisa where he earned a degree in philosophy and at the Salesian Pontifical University where he earned a bachelor of arts in psychology. Following this, he entered the seminary and studied theology.
Borghetti was ordained a priest on 17 October 1982 in the Massa Cathedral by Bishop Aldo Forzoni.
Borghetti eventually became the vice chancellor and then rector of the diocesan seminary of the Diocese of Massa-Carrara-Pontremoli and a parish priest of the Massa Cathedral. By 1993, he was the spiritual director of the seminary and the director of the diocese's office for vocations. From 1993 to 1996, he served as the episcopal vicar. In 1997, he became a priest in the parish of Santa Maria della Rosa in Montignoso. He then became the dean of the Msgr. Enrico Bartoletti Inter-diocesan Theological Study (Italian: Studio Teologico Interdiocesano "Mons. Enrico Bartoletti") in Camaiore.
