Ancient Diocese of Saint-Omer

(Redirected from Diocese of St-Omer)
Saint-Omer Cathedral

The former French Catholic diocese of Saint-Omer existed from 1559[1] until the French Revolution, with its episcopal seat in Saint-Omer Cathedral in Saint-Omer, in the modern department of Pas-de-Calais The diocese was created as a reaction to the destruction of the see of Thérouanne by military action in the wars of the Emperor Charles V. It then became a suffragan of the Archdiocese of Cambrai in 1559.

By the Concordat of 1801, the diocese of Saint-Omer was united with the diocese of Arras and the diocese of Boulogne, to form an enlarged diocese of Arras.[2]
