History edit

 
Silver Cross

The diocese was established on 14 February 2008 from the northern parts of the Diocese of Nitra, which shifted more to the south and from a small part of the Diocese of Banská Bystrica.

In 2018, for the diocese’s tenth anniversary, a Silver Cross started to be awarded.[1]

April 2022 in consideration of the Evangelium of Mathew 28, 8–15.
