The Diocese of San Marino-Montefeltro (Latin: Dioecesis Sammarinensis-Feretrana), known until 1977 as the Diocese of Montefeltro, is a Latin Church ecclesiastical jurisdiction or diocese of the Catholic Church in both Italy and San Marino. It is a suffragan in the ecclesiastical province of the metropolitan Archdiocese of Ravenna-Cervia.[1][2] The current diocese includes all the parishes of San Marino.
It has its collegiate cathedral episcopal see S. Bartolomeo, dedicated to the Apostle St. Bartholomew, in Pennabilli, Rimini, Emilia Romagna, and two co-cathedrals:
- the church of San Leo, located in the nearby Italian town of that name, once the cathedral of the former see.
- the Basilica di San Marino, in the City of San Marino. This is a minor basilica and World Heritage Site.
