One prelate has governed three distinct French jurisdictions since 1966, holding at once the titles Archbishop of Chambéry, Bishop of Maurienne, and Bishop of Tarentaise. Together the united sees form the Archdiocese of Chambéry, Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne et Tarentaise (Latin: Archidioecesis Camberiensis, Maruianensis et Tarantasiensis; French: Archidiocèse de Chambéry, Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne et Tarentaise), a complex of three Catholic Church jurisdictions in France. Each of the three belongs, as a suffragan, to the province of the Archdiocese of Lyon.
