The Italian Catholic diocese of Conversano-Monopoli, in Puglia, has existed since 1986. In the year the diocese of Monopoli was united into the historic diocese of Conversano. The diocese is a suffragan of the archdiocese of Bari-Bitonto. Conversano is the ancient Cupersanum. After the invasion of the Normans, it was for a while the seat of a duchy; later, however, it became a fief of the dukes of Atri. The first bishop whose date is certain was Hilarius, present at the Roman synod of 501. Local tradition, however, preserves the name of a previous bishop, Simplicius, who died in 492.
