List of Roman Catholic Dioceses in Ireland - Georgraphic Boundaries

Georgraphic Boundaries

Unlike most of Europe, the boundaries of the Roman Catholic dioceses in Ireland do not conform with the political border between the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland. One archdiocese, and three dioceses straddle the border.

  • Archdiocese of Armagh (includes parts of counties Armagh, Londonderry and Tyrone)
  • Diocese of Clogher (includes parts of counties Fermanagh and Tyrone)
  • Diocese of Derry (includes parts of counties Londonderry, Antrim and Tyrone)
  • Diocese of Kilmore (includes parts of County Fermanagh).
