The Archdiocese of Pescara-Penne (Latin: Archidioecesis Piscariensis-Pinnensis) was a Roman Catholic ecclesiastical territory in central Italy. It was created in 1982, by a name change and elevation in rank from the Diocese of Penne e Pescara.[1][2][3] That was in turn created in 1949, when the historic diocese of Penne-Atri was split up, with Atri going to form the Diocese of Teramo-Atri. The Diocese of Atri had been united with the Diocese of Penne in 1252.
The seat of the archbishops is in the Pescara Cathedral.[1]
