History

In the Veneto of northern Italy, the Diocese of Belluno-Feltre (Latin: Dioecesis Bellunensis-Feltrensis) took its present shape in 1986. Twice before, from 1197 to 1762 and again from 1818 to 1986, the dioceses of Belluno and Feltre had shared a single bishop under the name diocese of Belluno e Feltre. Today the diocese is a suffragan of the Patriarchate of Venice.
