The Diocese of Caserta (Latin: Dioecesis Casertana) is a Latin diocese of the Catholic Church in Campania, southern Italy. It is a suffragan of the Archdiocese of Naples.[1][2] In 1818 Pope Pius VII united this see with the diocese of Caiazzo, but Pope Pius IX made them separate sees.[3] In 2013 in the diocese of Caserta there was one priest for every 1,703 Catholics; in 2016, there was one priest for every 2,008 Catholics. The diocesan Major Seminary currently (2019) has four seminarians.[4]
