History

Since 1986, when the Diocese of Sant'Agata de' Goti was suppressed and its territory and Catholic population joined to the Diocese of Telese-Cerreto Sannita, the Latin Diocese of Cerreto Sannita-Telese-Sant'Agata de' Goti (Latin: Dioecesis Cerretana-Thelesina-Sanctae Agathae Gothorum) has served the Catholic Church in Campania, Italy, as a suffragan of the Archdiocese of Benevento. Its cathedral in Cerreto Sannita, the Cattedrale di SS. Trinità e Beata Vergine Maria Madre della Chiesa, is dedicated to the Holy Trinity and, by a late-20th century addition, to Mary Mother of the Church.
