History

Until 1986 this see in Romagna, Italy was known simply as the Diocese of Forlì, a diocese in existence perhaps from the fourth century. In that year the Diocese of Bertinoro was united to it, producing the present Diocese of Forlì-Bertinoro (Latin: Dioecesis Foroliviensis-Brittinoriensis), a Latin diocese suffragan to the Archdiocese of Ravenna-Cervia.
