Latin Archbishopric of Neopatras
The Latin or Roman Catholic Archbishopric of Neopatras is a titular see of the Catholic Church. It was established briefly as a residential episcopal see at Neopatras ("New Patras", modern Ypati) in Central Greece, after the Fourth Crusade, in place of the Greek Orthodox Metropolis of Neopatras. The area was recovered by the Epirote Greeks in c. 1218, but came again under Latin rule in 1319 as the Duchy of Neopatras, leading to the restoration of the see until the Ottoman conquest. The archbishopric was restored as a titular see in 1933. Its last incumbent died in 1967.
