Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Djakovo-Osijek
- Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Djakovo-Osijek
The Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Đakovo-Osijek (Latin: "Archidioecesis Diacovensis"); (Croatian: "Đakovačko-osiječka nadbiskupija") is an archdiocese of the Latin Rite of the Roman Catholic Church in Croatia.
The archdiocese is centred on the cities of Đakovo and Osijek, in Croatia.
Currently, Bishop Marin Srakić, who was appointed in 1997, as bishop, and in 2008, elevated to Archbishop is head of the diocese.
The Archdiocese currently has 2 suffragans: the Diocese of Požega, and the Diocese of Srijem.
History
The archdiocese has a long and complicated history. Originally erected in the 4th Century as the diocese of Sirmio, the diocese was united with the diocese of Bosnia in July of 1773. In 1963, the diocese was renamed to the diocese of Djakovo o Bosnia i Srijem, to reflect its division across the borders of Croatia and Serbia. Finally, the diocese was elevated to an Archdiocese in July 18, 2008 by Pope Benedict XVI, renamed to the Archdiocese of Djakovo-Osijek and the new Diocese of Srijem was split off, and made a suffragan. The new Archdiocese also received the Diocese of Požega, as its second suffragan.
