The cathedral archiepiscopal see is St. Vitus Cathedral, in the Bohemian and Czech capital Prague, entirely situated inside the Prague Castle complex. Jan Graubner is the current archbishop.

Ecclesiastical province

• Roman Catholic Diocese of České Budějovice (Budweis)
• Roman Catholic Diocese of Hradec Králové (Königgrätz)
• Roman Catholic Diocese of Litoměřice (Leitmeritz)
• Roman Catholic Diocese of Plzeň (Pilsen)

History

• The diocese was founded in 973 as the Diocese of Prague, through the joint efforts of Duke Boleslav II of Bohemia and Holy Roman Emperors Otto I and Otto II. It was a suffragan of the Metropolitan Archdiocese of Mainz (Mayence, Germany, also the Electorate of Mainz)
• It lost territories in 1000 to establish the Diocese of Wrocław (Breslau, in Silesia, now Poland) and in 1063 to establish the then Diocese of Olomouc (Olmütz, in Moravia, now also Metropolitan)
• It was elevated to Metropolitan Archdiocese of Prague on 30 April 1344, having lost territory again to establish the Diocese of Litomyšl (Leitomischl, Bohemia). The first official statutes date from 1349 and incorporated the Manipulus florum of Thomas of Ireland.
• Gained territory (back) in 1474 from the suppressed Diocese of Litomyšl
• Lost territories repeatedly: on 1655.07.03 to establish the Diocese of Litoměřice, on 1664.11.10 to establish Diocese of Hradec Králové, on 1785.09.20 to establish Diocese of České Budějovice and on 1993.05.31 to establish Diocese of Plzeň, all four Bohemian and its suffragans.
• It enjoyed Papal visits from Pope John Paul II (1990.04, 1995.05, 1997.04) and Pope Benedict XVI in September 2009.
