The 2018 Eurobarometer data shows 73.4% of Slovenian population identifying as Catholic[1] that fell to 72.1% in the 2019 Eurobarometer survey.[2] According to the Catholic Church data, the Catholic population fell from 78.04% in 2009 to 72.11% in 2019.[3]
There are total of 1,509,986 (72.11%) Catholics in Slovenia in 2019 by official statistics published by Catholic Church of Slovenia.[4] The country is divided into six dioceses, including two archdioceses. The diocese of Maribor was elevated to an archdiocese by Pope Benedict XVI in 2006. Additionally, the pope created three new sees, namely Novo Mesto, Celje and Murska Sobota.
Slovenian Catholic Church and Slovenian priests operate in Slovenian churches worldwide, most notably in Slovenian Church of St. Cyril in New York.[5][6]
Archbishop Jean-Marie Speich is the Apostolic Nuncio to Slovenia, the Titular Archbishop of Sulci[7] and the Apostolic Delegate to Kosovo.
