The Roman Catholic Diocese of Ravello was a former diocese centred on Ravello. It is now a titular see, currently held by Claudio Gugerotti, apostolic nuncio to Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan. In 1086 pope Victor III made Ravello the seat of diocese, whose territory was split off from the archdiocese of Amalfi and given the special privilege of being immediately answerable to the Holy See. Early on the bishops of Ravello all came from patrician families of the city, showing the church's municipalised character. On 31 July 1603 the Diocese of Ravello was merged aeque principaliter with the diocese of Scala. The Bishop of Scala, then Francesco Bennio, became bishop of Ravello - he and his successors remained titulars of both Ravello and Scala until 27 June 1818, when both dioceses were suppressed and merged into the archdiocese of Amalfi by pope Pius VII's bull De utiliori, in the wake of his concordat with Ferdinand I.
