Roman Catholic archdiocese in France (417-1801, 1817-1822)
The former cathedral of St. Trophime, in Arles.
The former French Catholic Archbishopric of Arles had its episcopal seat in the city of Arles, in southern France. At the apex of the delta (Camargue) of the Rhone River, some 40 miles from the sea, Arles grew under Liburnian, Celtic, and Punic influences, until, in 46 B.C., a Roman military veteran colony was founded there by Tiberius Claudius Nero, under instructions from Julius Caesar.[1][2] For centuries, the archbishops of Arles were regional leaders in creating and codifying canon law, through councils and synods.[3]
The diocese was suppressed in 1822, fulfilling a condition in the Concordat of 1817 with King Louis XVIII.
