Roman Catholic Diocese of Leitomischl

The Roman Catholic Diocese of Litomyšl (Czech; Leitomischl in German) was a medieval Latin Catholic bishopric in Litomyšl, Bohemia (then Holy Roman Empire, now Czech Republic) and remains a Latin Catholic titular see.

History

On April 30, 1344 the Diocese of Litomyšl / Leitomischl (in Czech) / Lutomislen(sis) (Latin adjective) was established as the second bishopric in Bohemia, on territory split off from the first, the then Diocese of Prague (Praha).
In 1474 it was suppressed and its territory merged back into the (meanwhile Metropolitan) Archdiocese of Prague.
