Arbanum
Arbanum is a town, former bishopric and present titular see in present Albania.[1]
Latin bishopric
Arbanum was established circa 1100 as Diocese of Arbano (or Albania), suffragan of the Metropolitan Archbishopric of Durrës.
It was suppressed in 1640, its territory being merged into that of its Metropolitan, the Archdiocese of Durrës.
