List of Catholic dioceses in Norway

rdf:langString List of Catholic dioceses in Norway

rdf:langString The Catholic Church in Norway (where the state church is Lutheran) and its overseas territories has no ecclesiastical province nor belongs to any (all sees being exempt, i.e. directly subject to the Holy See) nor has a national episcopal conference, but the Norwegian Catholic episcopate partakes in the Episcopal conference of Scandinavia. The three proper sees are all Latin rite : * one full bishopric in the national capital * two missionary pre-diocesan territorial prelatures. The Eastern Catholics are pastorally served by a transnational apostolic exarchate from Germany. There formally is also an Apostolic Nunciature to Norway, as papal embassy-level diplomatic representation, albeit vested in the Apostolic Nunciature to Sweden (in Djursholm), as are the nunciatures to Denmark, Finland and Iceland, covering the Nordic countries.
