Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Campobasso-Boiano
The Italian Catholic Archdiocese of Campobasso-Boiano became an archdiocese in 1973 and a metropolitan see in 1976. The historical diocese of Boiano was renamed diocese of Boiano-Campobasso in 1927. It was suffragan to the archdiocese of Benevento.History
The first recorded bishop of Boiano is Adalberto. Others were:
- Poliziano who consecrated the cathedral;
- Giovanni, who decorated the facade at his own expense, as recorded in an inscription;
- Silvio Pandoni, who restored the work of Giovanni;
- Cardinals Franciotto Orsini and Carlo Carafa, who adorned the cathedral with costly furnishings;
- Celestino Bruni, theologian and preacher.
After the death of Bishop Nicolò Rosetti, differences between the Holy See and the Kingdom of Naples prevented the appointment of a successor until 1836, when Giuseppe Riccardi was appointed.Bishops of Boiano
