Diocese in the province of Parma, Italy. The city takes its name from St.
Domninus, who fled to that place during the persecution of Maximian (286-305)
and suffered martyrdom. It did not become an episcopal see until 1601, under
Clement VIII, having until then been governed ecclesiastically by a provost with
full faculties, subject directly to the Holy See. The last provost, Papiro
Picedi da Castel Vezzano, was the first Bishop of Borgo San-Donnino. The
cathedral, dating from the twelfth century, is a beautiful monument of
Romanesque architecture; its façade, however, is still unfinished. Among the
notable occupants of this see have been: Alfonso Pozzi (1620), a learned and
zealous man; Ranuccio Scoti (1626), several times papal nuncio under Urban VIII,
particularly to Switzerland; Filippo Casoni (1650), who urged Ughelli to write
his "Italia Sacra"; Alessandro Parravicini, a Benedictine (1660); Gaetano
Garimberti (1675), who enlarged the episcopal residence and enriched the
cathedral with gifts of sacred vessels and furnishings; Alessandro Roncovieri
(1700), distinguished for his zeal and charity; Gerardo Giandemaria (1719), who
held a diocesan synod the wise decrees of which are still in force; Girolamo
Baiardi (1753), who restored the episcopal residence and founded a hospital;
Alessandro Garimberti (1776) who was distinguished for his prudent conduct
during the French invasion, and who left his library to the seminary. This
diocese has a population of 60,400, with 54 parishes, 76 churches and chapels,
100 secular priests, 10 regulars, and 70 seminarians.
