Suburbicarian Diocese of Sabina–Poggio Mirteto

Sabina Sabina has been the seat of such a bishopric since the 6th century, though the earliest names in the list of bishops may be apocryphal. The ancient cathedral of San Salvatore of Sabina was located in Forum Novum (Vescovio). The official papal province of Sabina was established under Pope Paul V in 1605. Since 1842 the Cardinal Bishop of Sabina has also borne the title of Territorial Abbot of Farfa. Poggio Mirteto The Diocese of Poggio Mirteto, in central Italia region Lazio's Province of Rieti (formerly in the province of Perugia), was a Latin bishopric from 1841 until its merger in to the Diocese of Sabina in 1925. Poggio Mirteto was previously under the jurisdiction of the Territorial Abbey of Farfa, which later passed to the Diocese of Sabina. The diocese of Poggio Mirteto was established on November 25, 1841 from territory split off from the Roman Catholic Diocese of Rieti, the Diocese of Sabina and the suppressed Territorial Abbacy of San Salvatore Maggiore, whose old collegiate church became the cathedral, and a diocesan seminary was established. The diocese had in the early 20th century 38 parishes, with 32,600 inhabitants, 2 religious houses of men and 8 of sisters, under whose direction were the schools for girls in several communes. Sabina–Poggio Mirteto Since 1925 (1925.06.03), the cardinalitial suburbicarian see of Sabina has been united to that of Poggio Mirteto, and has been officially named Sabina e Poggio Mirteto, since 1986 Sabina–Poggio Mirteto. Some of territory of Poggio Mirteto was returned to the other mother-bishopric, the Diocese of Rieti. The current Cardinal-Bishop is Giovanni Battista Re, while the Ordinary of the Diocese is Bishop Ernesto Mandara. == Cardinal-bishops of Sabina ==
