Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Baghdad
The Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Baghdad is a Catholic diocese of the Roman/Latin Rite located in the city of Baghdad in Iraq. It has jurisdiction over three parishes of 2,500 Latin Church Catholics who live throughout Iraq. The diocese is immediately subject to the Holy See. It operates alongside seven Chaldean dioceses, three Syrian Catholic, one Greek-Melkite jurisdiction, and one Armenian Catholic diocese, all of which are in communion with the Holy See. The Archdiocese's cathedral is the Cathedral of St. Joseph in Baghdad, not to be confused with the Cathedral of St. Joseph located in Ankawa, Iraq.History
