The Archdiocese of Potenza-Muro Lucano-Marsico Nuovo is a metropolitan see in the Basilicata region of southern Italy, with its cathedral in Potenza. The ancient see of Potenza was elevated to an archdiocese in 1973, and the current name reflects a 1986 merger with the dioceses of Muro Lucano and Marsico Nuovo.
