The diocese of Tortona is a Roman Catholic ecclesiastical territory in northern Italy, spanning the three regions of Piedmont (Province of Alessandria), Lombardy (Province of Pavia) and Liguria (Province of Genoa). It is a suffragan of the archdiocese of Genoa and forms part of the ecclesiastical region of Liguria. According to legend, which is, however, a late one, the first Bishop of Tortona was St. Martianus martyred under the Emperor Hadrian. It is certain that, in the first half of the fourth century, Tortona was subject to the diocese of Vercelli. The first bishop, according to Fedele Savio, was St. Innocent, whom he believes was the predecessor of St. Exuperantius (381), the first of whom we have certain historical record, and who was highly praised in a sermon of Maximus of Turin.
