Arcidiocesi Lanciano-Ortona (in Italian)

The Archdiocese of Lanciano-Ortona (Latin: Archidioecesis Lancianensis-Ortonensis) is a Latin diocese of the Catholic Church that has existed under this name since 1986. Since 1982, it has been a suffragan of the Archdiocese of Chieti-Vasto.

The historical Diocese of Lanciano was created in 1515. It was united with the Diocese of Ortona from 1818 to 1834, and again in 1986. The archbishop of Lanciano was Perpetual Administrator of the diocese of Ortona from 1834 to 1982, and then held the two dioceses aeque personaliter until 1986, when Ortona was permanently suppressed.

History

[edit]

Until 1515 Lanciano was subject to the Bishop of Chieti. In 1515, Pope Leo X created Lanciano a separate diocese, and made it immediately subject to the Holy See, making the bishop of Chieti both angry and jealous. In 1562 Pope Pius IV, to end a dispute with that bishop, made it an archdiocese without suffragans. The first bishop was Angelo Maccafani; the first archbishop was the Dominican Leonardo Marini (1560).[1]

Ortona was an episcopal see in the time of Gregory the Great, who mentions the Bishop Calumniosus and his predecessor Blandinus. Another bishop was Joannes, who in 916 was the papal legate at the Council of Altheim. There is no record of a Bishop of Ortona after the tenth century. Pope Pius V in 1570 re-established the see, to which in 1569 the diocese of Campli was united.

Restoration

[edit]

Following the extinction of the Napoleonic Kingdom of Italy, the Congress of Vienna authorized the restoration of the Papal States and the Kingdom of Naples. It was imperative that Pope Pius VII and King Ferdinand IV reach agreement on restoration and restitution. Ferdinand, however, demanded the suppression of fifty dioceses.[2] On 17 July 1816, King Ferdinand issued a decree, in which he forbade the reception of any papal document without prior reception of the royal exequatur. This meant that prelates could not receive bulls of appointment, consecration, or installation without the king's permission.[3]

A concordat was finally signed on 16 February 1818, and ratified by Pius VII on 25 February 1818. Ferdinand issued the concordat as a law on 21 March 1818.[4] The right of the king to nominate the candidate for a vacant bishopric was recognized, as in the Concordat of 1741, subject to papal confirmation (preconisation).[5] On 27 June 1818, Pius VII issued the bull De Ulteriore, in which the diocese of Ortona was suppressed, and its ecclesiastical territory was assigned to the archdiocese of Lanciano.[6] When, in 1818, Ortona was joined to Lanciano, the territory of the diocese of Campli was assigned to the diocese of Teramo.[7]

On 17 June 1834, Pope Gregory XVI issued the bull Ecclesiarum omnium, in which the arrangement made in 1818 was reversed. The diocese of Ortona was restored, and the cathedral which had been reduced to the status of a collegiate church was restored to cathedral status. It's college of clerics again became the canons of the cathedral of Ortona. The finances of the old diocese of Ortona, which had been incorporated into those of the diocese of Lanciano, were again separated. The one exception to the return to the status quo ante was the seminary. It was deemed more efficient for both dioceses to use the seminary of Lanciano on equal terms.[8] The archbishop of Lanciano became the "Perpetual Administrator of the Church of Ortona."[9]

On 10 September 1881, a major earthquake caused considerable damage in Lanciano and in Orsogna, with some loss of life and many injuries. In Orsogna, 14 km (9 mi) west of Lanciano, all six churches were damaged or fell.[10]

New ecclesiastical province

[edit]

On 2 March 1982, Pope John Paul II issued the bull, Fructuosae Ecclesiae, in which he created the new ecclesiastical province of Chieti (Theatina), granting it as suffragan dioceses Vasto, Lanciano and Ortona. The metropolitan status of Lanciano was cancelled, though its archbishop was permitted to retain the title of archbishop. The diocese of Ortona was joined to the archdiocese of Lanciano aeque principaliter, that is, one single bishop was bishop of two dioceses at the same time.[11]

In 2015 Lanciano celebrated the 500th anniversary of the diocese.[12][13]
