Greek Catholic Apostolic Exarchate of Greece


The Greek Catholic Apostolic Exarchate of Greece is the junior of two jurisdictions constituting the Greek Byzantine Catholic Church, an Eastern Catholic particular church sui iuris, which practices the Byzantine Rite in the Greek language.
It is exempt, i.e. not part of any ecclesiastical province, but directly subject to the Holy See.
It has its cathedral episcopal see in the Cathedral of the Holy Trinity in Athens, Greece, and covers the whole of the Hellenic Republic.

History

It was established on 11 June 1932 as the Apostolic Exarchate of Greece, on territory split off from the then Apostolic Exarchate of Turkey of Europe, whose Apostolic Exarch transferred to the new exarchate.
