Roman Catholic Diocese of Belcastro

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Bishop of Belcastro)

The Diocese of Belcastro (Latin: Dioecesis Bellicastrensis) in the town of Belcastro in the province of Catanzaro, in the Calabria region of southern Italy. In 1828, it was suppressed to the Archdiocese of Santa Severina.[1][2]

History

[edit]

The diocese of Belcastro has existed from at least 1122, suffragan of the Metropolitan Archdiocese of Santa Severina, but the earliest bishop whose name is known is of the early 13th century.

By the papal bull De utiliori of Pope Pius VII of 27 June 1828, the diocese was suppressed, its territory being incorporated (without its title) into its Metropolitan's archdiocese of Santa Severina.[3][4][5][6]

It has had the following incumbents of the lowest (episcopal) and intermediary (archiepiscopal) ranks :
