Roman Catholic Diocese of Todi

The Italian Catholic diocese of Todi existed until 1986, when it was united into the diocese of Orvieto-Todi.^[1][2] Up until that point, the diocese had always been directly dependent on the Holy See.

Todi Cathedral

History

During the Gothic War the city of Todi withstood Totila during a long and severe siege. The Lombard failed to capture it, and Todi and Perugia remained the two chief fortresses defending the passage through the duchy from Rome to the Exarchate. It was included in Pepin's donation to the Holy See.

Other bishops are:

• Guglielmo Dallavigna (1405), who tried to induce the antipope Benedict XIII to renounce his claim;
• the brothers Cardinal Filippo Antonio Gualterio (1709) and Ludovico Anselmo Gualterio (1719), who erected a new seminary;
• Francesco M. Pasini (1760), under whom the restoration of the cathedral was completed.

Chapter and cathedral

The cathedral was also a parish church.

The Chapter of the cathedral of the Annunciation in Todi consisted of two dignities (the Provost and the Archdeacon) and twelve Canons, each with a prebend (assigned income). In addition there were eight mansionarii and other clergy.^[3] In 1673 and in 1746 there were two dignities and twelve Canons.^[4]

Synods

Bishop Angelo Cesi (1566–1606) presided over a diocesan synod in 1576, and published its constitutions, as well as those of earlier synods, including one of Bishop Andreas de Aptis (1356–1373).^[5]

A diocesan synod was held by Bishop Pietro Maria Bichi (1658–1673) on 22–24 May 1662,^[6] and another on 16 April 1668. Bishop Giuseppe Pianetti (1673–1709) held a diocesan synod in Todi on 27—29 April 1678.^[7]

Bishop Francesco Maria Gazzoli (1805–1848) held a diocesan synod on 1–2 May 1818.^[8]

Reorganization of dioceses

In a decree of the Second Vatican Council, it was recommended that dioceses be reorganized to take into account modern developments.^[9] A project begun on orders from Pope John XXIII, and continued under his successors, was intended to reduce the number of dioceses in Italy and to rationalize their borders in terms of modern population changes and shortages of clergy. The change was made urgent because of changes made to the Concordat between the Italian State and the Holy See on 18 February 1984, and embodied in a law of 3 June 1985. The change was approved by Pope John Paul II in an audience of 27 September 1986, and by a decree of the Sacred Congregation of Bishops of the Papal Curia on 30 September 1986. The diocese of Todi was united to the diocese of Orvieto. Its name was to be Dioecesis Urbevetana-Tudertina. The seat of the diocese was to be in Orvieto. The former cathedral in Todi was to have the honorary title of co-cathedral, and its Chapter was to be called the Capitulum Concathedralis. There was to be only one episcopal curia, one seminary, one ecclesiastical tribunal; and all the clergy were to be incardinated in the diocese of Orvieto-Todi. The territory of the diocese was to be the same as the two dioceses combined.^[10]
