An Italian diocese immediately subject to the
Holy See. It comprises 29 towns in the province of Caserta and 7 in that of Aquila. Aquino became a bishopric in 465; Sora, in 275, with a regular list of bishops from 1221; Pontecorvo, on 28 June, 1725, and was immediately united to the diocese of Aquino. Sora was added to these in 1818 by
Pius VII. Aquino has a population of 50,150; 21 parishes, 77 secular priests, 55 regulars, 55 seminarists, 91 churches and chapels. Sora has 95,200 inhabitants; 44 parishes, 182 secular priests, 37 regulars, 189 seminarists, 220 churches or chapels. Pontecorvo has 12,000 inhabitants; 8 parishes, 30 secular priests, 6 regulars, 25 churches or chapels. The seat of the bishop is at Rocca Secca. St. Constans is the patron of the cathedral. He was Bishop of Aquino in 566. Galeazzo (
Bishop, 1543) was one of the four judges of the
Council of Trent, and Filippo Filonardo (
bishop, 1608) became a
Cardinal. The poet Juvenal (about A.D. 60-140), the Roman Emperor Pescennius Niger (A.D. 190), and the Angelic Doctor, St. Thomas (A.D. 1225), were born at Aquino.
