Ancient Diocese of Saint-Papoul

The former French Catholic diocese of Saint-Papoul was created in 1317[1] by Pope John XXII. Its see was at Saint-Papoul, in south-west France, in the modern department of Aude, where there was a Benedictine monastery[2].

It existed until the French Revolution. Under the Concordat of 1801 its territory was taken over by the diocese of Carcassonne.
