Archdiocese of San Francisco
Since 1853
The Archdiocese of San Francisco (Latin: Archdiœcesis Sancti Francisci; Spanish: Arquidiócesis de San Francisco) is a diocese of the Catholic Church in the northern California region of the United States. It was erected in 1853. Its cathedral is the Cathedral of Saint Mary of the Assumption.
Why it's on the map
The first Catholic church in the Archdiocese of San Francisco is older than the archdiocese itself; Mission San Francisco de Asís (Mission Dolores) was founded in 1776 by Franciscan Friars.
The friars built the current mission building in 1791.
