Roman Catholic Diocese Of Saint-Flour
The Diocese of Saint-Flour (Latin: ''Dioecesis Sancti Flori''; French: ''Diocèse de Saint-Flour'') is a Latin diocese of the Catholic Church in France. The diocese comprises the department of Cantal. Erected in 1317, the diocese was suffragan of (subject to) the Archdiocese of Bourges until 2002. With the general reorganization of the structure of the French church by Pope John Paul II, Saint-Flour became the suffragan of the Archdiocese of Clermont. The seat of the bishop is located in Saint-Flour, Cantal. The current bishop is Bruno Grua, who was appointed in March 2006 by Pope Benedict XVI.

Bishop Grua therefore reorganized the parish structure, reducing the number of parishes from 161 ...
