The Italian Catholic Diocese of Diano (Teggiano)–Policastro (Latin: Dioecesis Dianensis-Policastrensis), in Campania, has existed since 1850, under its present name since 1986. In that year the Diocese of Diano (Teggiano) was united with the diocese of Policastro. The diocese is a suffragan of the Archdiocese of Salerno-Campagna-Acerno. Its cathedral is the Cattedrale di S. Maria Maggiore e S. Michele Arcangelo, in Teggiano. The current bishop is Antonio De Luca. The diocese of Capaccio (Caputaquensis), as it had grown over the centuries, had become extremely large in geographical extent, and, as the population grew as well, it became much more difficult to administer. In 1848, the inhabitants numbered some 182,000. Discussions on dividing the diocese had already begun in the reign of Pope Gregory XVI, division of assets and relocation of facilities being of prime consideration. Progress was interrupted by the revolutions of 1848, and the deposition of the pope and creation of the Roman Republic. In addition, Bishop Gregorio Fistilli had resigned on 26 September 1848, leaving the diocese of Capaccio without a bishop from 1848 to 1853. More information...
