History

Jerusalem (in Latin also Hierosolyma) was one of the Apostles' original bishoprics. It was renamed Aelia Capitolina in 135 AD, again Jerusalem in 325. In 451 it was promoted as Patriarchal See. After 649, Pope Martin I, Pope Martin appointed John of Philadelphia (Amman) as Patriarchal vicar of Jerusalem to replace Sergius of Jaffa. In 1054, the East–West Schism, Great Schism split Christianity into the Eastern Orthodox Church—which consisted of the four Orthodox Christian Patriarchs of Patriarch of Antioch, Antioch, Greek Orthodox Patriarch of Jerusalem, Jerusalem, Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople, Constantinople and Patriarch of Alexandria, Alexandria—under the stewardship of Constantinople; and the Catholic Church, which consisted of the Pope of Rome and virtually all of Western Christianity. Apart from the Maronites, most Christians in the Holy Land came under the jurisdiction of the Eastern Orthodox Patriarchate of Jerusalem.

Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem

In 1099, the Western Crusaders captured

, set up the

and established a Latin hierarchy under a Latin Patriarch (in communion with Rome), while expelling the Orthodox Patriarch. The Latin Patriarchate was divided into four archdioceses—their heads bearing the titles of Archbishop of Tyre, Archbishop of Caesarea, Archbishop of Nazareth and Archbishop of Petra—and a number of suffragan dioceses. The Latin Patriarch took over control of the Latin quarter of the city of Jerusalem (the Basilica of the Holy Sepulchre, Holy Sepulchre and the immediate surroundings) as his Metropolitan see, and had as his direct suffragans the Lydda (titular see), bishops of Lydda-Ramla, Bethlehem, Hebron (titular see), Hebron and Gaza City, Gaza, and the abbots of the Temple Mount, Temple, Mount Zion, Mount Sion and the Mount of Olives. The Latin Patriarch resided in Jerusalem from 1099 to 1187, while Orthodox Patriarchs continued to be appointed, but resided in Constantinople. In 1187, the Crusaders were forced to flee Jerusalem, and the Latin Patriarchy moved to Acre, Israel, Acre (Akka), while the Orthodox Patriarch returned to Jerusalem. The Catholic Church continued to appoint residential Latin Patriarchs. The Crusader Kingdom of Jerusalem endured almost 200 years until the last vestiges of the Kingdom were conquered by the Muslim Mamluks in 1291, and the Latin hierarchy was effectively eliminated in the Levant. With the Fall of Acre, the Latin Patriarch moved to The Kingdom of Cyprus in 1291.

Titular Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem

In 1374, the Kingdom of Cyprus underwent a severe upheaval when it was invaded by the Republic of Genoa, Genoese, who conquered Famagusta and held King Peter II of Cyprus, Peter II captive. From that time on, the Latin Patriarchs of Jerusalem ceased to reside in Cyprus. The Catholic Church continued to appoint titular bishop, titular Patriarchs of Jerusalem, but from then on they were based at the

. In 1342, Pope Clement VI officially committed the care of the Holy Land to the Franciscans and the Franciscan Custos of the Holy Lands (The Grand Masters of the

) held the title ''ex officio'' under the Papal bull ''List of papal bulls, Gratiam agimus'' by Pope Clement VI, unless someone was specifically appointed to the honorary office. Yet in 1570, it gained territories from the suppressed Archdiocese of Nicosia and Diocese of Paphos, and in 1571 it gained more territories from the suppressed Diocese of Limassol and Diocese of Famagosta, all in former Crusader Kingdom of Cyprus, which had fallen to the Ottoman Turks.

Modern Patriarchate of Jerusalem

A resident Latin Patriarch was re-established in 1847 by

, with Bishop Joseph Valerga being appointed to the office. Though officially superseding the Franciscans, Valerga was also the Grand Master of the Order. On Valerga's death in 1872, Vincent Braco was appointed, and following his death in 1889, the Ottoman Sultan authorised the re-establishment of a Latin hierarchy. The Grand Masters of the Order continued to be named as Latin Patriarchs until 1905. Jerusalem LatinPatriarchate 9092

The Co-Cathedral of the Most Holy Name of Jesus is the principal, or "mother" church of the Latin Patriarchate, the church in which the Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem has his official chair (cathedra). However, the Basilica of the Holy Sepulchre has the title of cathedral of the patriarchate. The residence of the Patriarch is in the Old City (Jerusalem), Old City, near the Co-Cathedral, while the seminary, which is responsible for the liturgy, liturgical education, is in Beit Jala, a town 10 km south of Jerusalem, where it has been since 1936. In 1987, Michel Sabbah became the first native Palestinian people, Palestinian to be appointed Latin Patriarch. The Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem is now the diocesan archbishop of Latin Catholics of the ''Catholic Archdiocese of Jerusalem'' and has jurisdiction for all

Catholics in Israel, Palestine (state), Palestine, Jordan and Cyprus. The prerogatives of the Patriarch in his relation with government authorities overlap with the prerogatives of the Apostolic Nuncio to Israel and the Apostolic Delegate to Jerusalem and Palestine. In 2008, Archbishop Fouad Twal was appointed Patriarch to succeed Patriarch Michel Sabbah. He exercised his mandate from June 21, 2008, until June 24, 2016, when he reached the canonical age of retirement and Pope Francis accepted his resignation. Pope Francis appointed Pierbattista Pizzaballa as apostolic administrator of the Patriarchate and named Patriarch on 24 October 2020. Pope Paul VI visited in January 1964, Pope John Paul II in March 2000, Pope Benedict XVI in May 2009 and Pope Francis in May 2014.
