Diocese Of Juvavo
In church governance, a diocese or bishopric is the ecclesiastical district under the jurisdiction of a bishop. History In the later organization of the Roman Empire, the increasingly subdivided provinces were administratively associated in a larger unit, the diocese (Latin ''dioecesis'', from the Greek term διοίκησις, meaning "administration"). Christianity was given legal status in 313 with the Edict of Milan. Churches began to organize themselves into dioceses based on the civil dioceses, not on the larger regional imperial districts. These dioceses were often smaller than the provinces. Christianity was declared the Empire's official religion by Theodosius I in 380. Constantine I in 318 gave litigants the right to have court cases transferred from the civil courts to the bishops. This situation must have hardly survived Julian, 361–363. Episcopal courts are not heard of again in the East until 398 and in the West in 408. The quality of these courts was l ...

Roman Catholic Diocese Of Wiener Neustadt
The former Roman Catholic Diocese of Wiener Neustadt in Lower Austria existed from 1469 to 1785. In 1990, it was re-established as a titular see which is held by the bishop for the Military Services in Austria. History Upon the request of the Emperor Frederick III, the diocese was created by Pope Paul II on 14 January 1469, and was immediately subject to the Holy See. At first it was coterminous with the town of Wiener Neustadt. In 1769 the new parish of Theresienfeld was added and in 1784 its territory was extended from Wiener-Neustadt to the boundary of Styria. On 21 April 1785, the see was incorporated in the Archdiocese of Vienna by Emperor Joseph II. Its last bishop, Johann Heinrich von Kerens, S.J. (1775–1785), and his cathedral chapter were transferred to the newly erected Diocese of Sankt Pölten. Cathedral The Late- Romanesque ''Dom'' or cathedral was consecrated in 1279 and remained the cathedral from 1469 to 1785. The choir stalls and transept, in Gothic s ...

Archdiocese Of Tiburnia
The diocese of Teurnia (or Tiburnia) was a Chalcedonian Christian church in the Roman province of Noricum during the 5th through 7th centuries. It is today a titular see in the Catholic Church. Ancient diocese There was a Christian population in Teurnia by the 4th century. Several Norican bishops—not identified by see—attended the council of Serdica in 343. They were of the Chalcedonian persuasion and subject to the ecclesiastical province of Aquileia. The first identifiable church, the ''Friedhofskirche'', was built shortly after 400. Another church was built in the refuge castle, and the whole diocese of Teurnia was dotted with such castles. A bishopric existed at Teurnia at least from the time of Severinus of Noricum (active in Noricum in 460–482), as attested in Eugippius's ''Vita sancti Severini'' (511). The cathedral was probably the church on the Holzerberg. There are numerous references to bishops of Teurnia from the 6th century. It is unclear if the bishop of Teu ...
