Eparchy of Lungro degli Albanesi

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Italian Catholic eparchy of Lungro degli Italo-Albanesi is in Calabria. It was created in 1919, as an eparchy directly subject to the Holy See,[1], for the Roman Catholics of the Greek Rite who had emigrated, mostly from Epirus and Albania, to Calabria and Sicily[2].

The current bishop, as of 2008, is Ercole Lupinacci[3][4].
