The Diocese of Nocera Umbra was a Catholic diocese in Umbria, Italy.[1]

In 1915 the Diocese of Nocera Umbra was united with the Diocese of Gualdo Tadino to form the Diocese of Nocera Umbra-Gualdo Tadino. In 1986 this was united with the Diocese of Assisi, to become the Diocese of Assisi-Nocera Umbra-Gualdo Tadino.[2][3]

History

The city of Nocera was destroyed in 546 by Totila, and again destroyed by the Lombards in the middle of the 8th century.[4]

Authentic Bishops were Felix (412) and Liutardus (824); others were:

In 1669, the cathedral was dedicated to S. Rinaldo, and had a Chapter composed of two dignities (the Provost and the Archdeacon, neither of whom had a prebend) and ten Canons. The entire diocese contained some 20,000 inhabitants, and the city of Nocera about 1,000.[5] In 1768, the cathedral, dedicated to the Assumption of the Body of the Virgin Mary into Heaven, was administered by a Chapter, composed of two dignities (the Provost and the Archdeacon) and ten Canons.[6]

  10. ^ An Aprilis was present at the Roman synod of Pope Symmachus in 502. The question is to which bishopric he belonged. The manuscripts (following Sbaraglia, Coleti, and Mansi) read: Aprilis Lateranensis. Cappelletti, Le chiese d'Italia V, pp. 13-14, rejects the idea that this can be transmuted into Nocerinus or anything similar; he would rather consider a corruption of Alatrinensis. Gams, p. 709, also rejects Aprilis. Cf. Lanzoni, p. 245.
