High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Roman Catholic Metropolitan Archdiocese of San Cristobal de la Habana is one of three Catholic Archdioceses in Cuba. Erected originally as Santiago de Cuba, this Latin Rite or Roman Rite diocese was erected as the Diocese of Santiago de Cuba on 10 September 1787 by Pope Pius VI. The original diocese encompassed the provinces of Santa Clara, Matanzas, Havana, and Pinar del Rio in Cuba and Florida and Louisiana in what is now The United States of America. On 25 April 1793 the diocese lost territory for what would be the first of four territorial losses when the diocese of Louisiana and the Two Floridas (Saint Louis of New Orleans) was erected. The diocese would again lose territory 20 February 1903 when the dioceses of Pinar del Rio and Cienfuegos were erected, and then again on 10 December 1912 upon the erection of the diocese of Matanzas.
