Roman Catholic Diocese of Vannes

Roman Catholic Diocese of Vannes

The Roman Catholic Diocese of Vannes is a diocese of the Latin Rite of the Roman Catholic church in France.

Erected in the 5th century, the Episcopal see is Vannes Cathedral, in the city of Vannes. The diocese corresponds to the province of Morbihan, and is suffragan to the Archdiocese of Rennes. Raymond Michel René Centène is the current bishop, since his appointment in 2005.

History

In 1801, the diocese was expanded after the Concordat, to include part of the former diocese of St. Malo, which was subsequently suppressed, after a three way split between the dioceses of Diocese of Vannes, Diocese of Saint-Brieuc, and the Archdiocese of Rennes.
