Diocese of Ferentino

Diocese of Ferentino

The Italian Catholic diocese of Ferentino existed until 1986, when it was united into the new diocese of Frosinone-Veroli-Ferentino.[1]

History

In the time of Emperor Constantine Ferentino had its own bishop; but the first known by name is Bassus, present at Roman synods, 487 and 492-493. St. Redemptus (about 570) is mentioned in the Dialogues of Gregory the Great; and he also refers to a Bishop Boniface.

Other bishops are

  • Trasmondo Sognino (1150), who died in prison;
  • Ubaldo (1150), legate of Pope Adrian IV to the princes of Christendom in favour of a crusade, later the consecrator of the antipope Victor IV;
  • Giacomo (1276), legate of Pope John XXI to Emperor Michael Palaeologus;
  • Landolfo Rosso (1297), who rendered service to Pope Boniface VIII;
  • Francesco Filippesio (1799), legate of Julius II to the Emperor Maximilian.[2]
