The Christian Catholic Church of Switzerland is the Swiss member church of the Union of Utrecht. It has 14,000 members and 40 parishes. The church is a national Swiss church and recognised (as are the Evangelical Reformed and the Roman Catholic churches) in 11 cantons by the government. Since 1874, the University of Berne has had its own Christian Catholic theological faculty, which is now one part (as the Christian Catholic section) of the Faculty of Old Catholic and Protestant Theology. The strongest concentration of Christian Catholics lies in the cantons of Solothurn, Aargau, Zurich and Geneva.
