Diocese of Roskilde (Roman-Catholic)

Diocese of Roskilde (Roman-Catholic)

The Roman-Catholic Diocese of Roskilde (Danish: Roskildes Stift) was a diocese within the Roman-Catholic Church which was established in Denmark some time before 1022.

The seat of the Bishop was Roskilde Cathedral but from 1167, when Bishop Absalon completeda a new bishop's palace known as Absalon's Castle on the small island of Slotsholmen, he resided at the small town of Havn which later became Copenhagen.

The diocese originally included both the island of Zealand and Scania, then part of Denmark, but Scania was disjoined in 1060 and initially divided into the Diocese of Dalby and the Diocese of Lund.

The diocese was dissolved with the Reformation of Denmark and replaced by the Protestant Diocese of Zealand in 1537.[1]

In 1868, the Roman Catholic Diocese of Copenhagen was established with St. Ansgar's Cathedral as the seat.

In 1922, the Protestant Diocese of Zealand was divided into the Diocese of Copenhagen and the Diocese of Roskilde.
