The Diocese of Prizren and Pristina (Latin: Dioecesis Prisrianensis e Pristinensis, Serbian: Епархија Призренско-Приштинска, romanized: Eparhija Prizrensko-Prištinska, Albanian: Dioqeza Prizren Prishtinë) is a Latin Church ecclesiastical territory or diocese of the Catholic Church in Kosovo. It is centred in the city of Prizren. It was erected as an apostolic administration in 2000, after being split from the Diocese of Skopje and Prizren, and elevated to the rank of diocese in 2018.[1]
The first apostolic administrator of Prizren was titular bishop Mark Sopi of Celerina, who served from 2000 to 2006.[2] He was succeeded by former bishop Dodë Gjergji of Sapë, who served as apostolic administrator of Prizren and currently serves as the first diocesan bishop.[3]
