Roman Catholic Diocese of Fano-Fossombrone-Cagli-Pergola

The diocese of Fano-Fossombrone-Cagli-Pergola is a Roman Catholic ecclesiastical territory in Italy, created in 1986, when the historical diocese of Fano was united to the diocese of Cagli e Pergola and the diocese of Fossombrone. It is a suffragan of the archdiocese of Pesaro.^[1]

History

St. Paternianus is venerated as the first Bishop of Fano and is supposed to have been appointed by Pope Sylvester I. St. Vitalis flourished in the time of Pope Symmachus (498-514). Eusebius accompanied Pope John I to Constantinople (526). Leo and St. Fortunatus belong to the period of Gregory the Great. The date of St. Orsus is uncertain.

Among the later bishops were Riccardo (1214), persecuted by the magistrate Alberghetti; and the Dominican Pietro Bertano (1537), an orator and advocate at the Council of Trent.^[2]
