Roman Catholic Diocese of Tudela

The Catholic Diocese of Tudela was a modern Latin bishopric with see in Tudela, Navarre, northern Spain, which existed 1783-1851 and again 1889-1956, each time being split off from the Pamplona see or reunited with it.

History
  • Established on 1783.03.27 as Diocese of Tudela / Tudelen(sis) (Latin), on territory split off from the Roman Catholic Diocese of Pamplona.
  • Suppressed on 1851.09.05, territory and title merged (back) into the henceforth Diocese of Pamplona–Tudela.
  • Restored on 1889.07.17 as Diocese of Tudela / Tudelen(sis) (Latin), split off again from Diocese of Pamplona–Tudela. It has often been vacant except for an apostolic administrator.
  • On 1984.08.11 it was again effectively suppressed, but formally in personal union (aeque principaliter) with Pamplona y Tudela, so it kept its cathedral, which was not even relegated to co-cathedral.
