Roman Catholic Diocese of Recanati

The Diocese of Recanati was a Roman Catholic diocese in Italy.

It was founded in 1239. It was merged with the Diocese of Loreto to form the Diocese of Recanati-Loreto in either 1591 or 1592. Its name was changed back to the Diocese of Recanti in 1934.

In 1986 it merged with the Diocese of Macerata-Tolentino, the Diocese of Osimo e Cingoli and the Diocese of San Severino to form the Diocese of Macerata-Tolentino-Recanati-Cingoli-Treia.[1]

During its early history it often lost and regained its episcopal status due to Papal politics.[2]
