Bishop of Sabina

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Contents

The Cardinal Bishop of Sabina is a cardinalatial office in the Roman Catholic Church. The Cardinal Bishop of Sabina is one of the six suburbicarian tituli (not counting Ostia) of the College of Cardinals which carry the rank of Cardinal Bishop. Since 1842 the Cardinal Bishop of Sabina also bears the title of Abbot of Farfa. Since 1925 the Cardinal Titular Church of Sabina has been joined to that of Poggio Mirteto, and officially named Sabina e Poggio Mirteto, since 1986 Sabina–Poggio Mirteto. The current (since 2000) Cardinal Bishop of Sabina-Poggio Mirteto is Giovanni Battista Cardinal Re.

Sabina has been the seat of such a bishopric since the 6th century, though the earliest names in the list of bishops may be apocryphal. The official papal province of Sabina was established under Pope Paul V in 1605.
