History

Alghero was built by the Doria of Genoa in 1102. In 1106 John, Bishop of Alghero, assisted at the consacration of the Church of the Trinity in Saccargia.

After a long period, the see was renewed and confirmed by Pope Julius II in his Papal Bull of 8 December 1503, splitting its territory off from the Metropolitan Archdiocese of Sassari, from the suppressed Roman Catholic Diocese of Bisarcio, Diocese of Castro and Diocese of Ottana. Pietro Parens, a Genoese, became bishop; he was present at the Fifth Lateran Council in 1512.[1]

On 1779.07.21 it lost territory to establish the Roman Catholic Diocese of Galtellì–Nuoro. In 1798 it gained territory from Metropolitan Archdiocese of Sassari. On 1803.03.09 it gained territory from the Diocese of Bosa, and lost territory to establish the Diocese of Bisarcio. On 1938.12.31 it lost territory to the Diocese of Nuoro.

On 1986 the historic Diocese of Alghero was renamed as Diocese of Alghero–Bosa presering the title of the diocese of Bosa while absorbing it territory, its ormer cathedral becaoming a cp-cathedral.[2]

On Monday, January 31, 2011, the Vatican Information Service (VIS) announced that Pope Benedict XVI had appointed the Reverend Father it, S.D.B., Professor of Holy Scripture at the Pontifical Theological Faculty of Sardinia, as Bishop-elect of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Alghero-Bosa, Italy. He was born in Arborea, Italy in 1958, and was ordained a priest in 1986.
