Map of the diocese

The Diocese of San Marino-Montefeltro (until 1977, the Diocese of Montefeltro) is a Latin Church ecclesiastical jurisdiction or diocese of the Catholic Church in both Italy and San Marino. It is a suffragan in the ecclesiastical province of the metropolitan Archdiocese of Ravenna-Cervia. [1] [2] The current diocese includes all the parishes of San Marino.

It has its collegiate cathedral episcopal see S. Bartolomeo, dedicated to the Apostle St. Bartholomew, in Pennabilli, Rimini, Emilia Romagna, and two co-cathedrals:

History

The earliest mention of Montefeltro, as Mona Feretri, is in the diplomas by which first Holy Roman Emperor Charlemagne confirmed the donation of Pepin. In 785 the bishopric was established as Diocese of Montefeltro. The first known bishop of Montefeltro was Agatho (826), whose residence was at San Leo.

Under Bishop Flaminios Dondi (1724) the see was again transferred to San Leo, but later it returned to Pennabilli. The historic diocese was a suffragan of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Urbino. [3]

On 22 February 1977, it was renamed as Diocese of San Marino–Montefeltro, having lost territory to the Diocese of Sarsina, and exchanged territory with the Diocese of Rimini.

It enjoyed Papal visits from Pope John Paul II in August 1982 and Pope Benedict XVI in June 2012.

On 18 September 2012, Pope Benedict XVI appointed the bishop of San Marino-Montefeltro, Bishop Luigi Negri, to serve as one of the Synod Fathers for the upcoming October 2012 13th Ordinary General Assembly of the Synod of Bishops on the New Evangelization. [4]
