Blessed Dalmau Llebaría Torné, also known as Dalmau Torné i Picola, was a Catholic priest in the archdiocese of Tarragona, Spain. He was born on October 5, 1877, in Falset, Tarragona, Spain. Blessed Dalmau served the faithful in Tarragona during a tumultuous period in Spanish history, the Spanish Civil War.

His beatification followed on October 13, 2013, under the pontificate of Pope Francis. The beatification ceremony took place in Tarragona, Spain, where the faithful gathered to honor his memory.
