Roman Catholic Diocese Of Smolensk
The Roman Catholic Diocese of Smolensk was a Latin Catholic diocese, founded in 1636 and dissolved in 1818, initially located in the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, and later on, in Czarist Russia. History The Roman Rite bishopric was established in 1611 by King Sigismund III Vasa. Its foundation was confirmed by the Sejm of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth in 1618, however the first bishop Piotr Parczewski was appointed only in 1636. The see rather often served as a stepping stone to be transferred to other bishoprics in the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth. Initially, the territory of the diocese formed part of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, however, after the Truce of Andrusovo of 1667 it passed to Russia. On 15 April 1783, it lost much of its territory to establish the Metropolitan Archdiocese of Mohilev. In 1818, it was suppressed and its territory merged into its Metropolitan and only daughter, the above Mohilev, which would be merged into the Diocese of M ...
