The '''Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Gorizia''', is an [[Archdiocese]] of the [[Latin Rite]] of the [[Roman Catholic church]] in [[Italy]]. The [[episcopal see|archiepiscopal see]] of [[Gorizia]] ([[Friulian language|Friulian]]: ''Gurizza/Gurizze''; {{lang-de|Görz}}; {{lang-sl|Gorica}}) was founded in 1752 when the [[Patriarchate of Aquileia (Episcopal)|Patriarchate of Aquileia]] was divided. It was suppressed in 1788 and re-established in 1797 as the Diocese of Görz-Gradisca. It was raised again to an [[archdiocese]] in 1830. The [[Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Ljubljana|diocese of Ljubljana]] (Laibach), [[Diocese of Trieste|Trieste-Koper]] (Capo d'Istria), [[Diocese of Poreč and Pula|Poreč-Pula]] (Parenzo-Pola), and [[Diocese of Krk|Krk-Rab]] (Veglia-Arbe) were formerly under the [[metropolitan bishop|metropolitan]] jurisdiction of this archdiocese; however, now the [[Roman Catholic Diocese of Trieste|Diocese of Trieste]] is its only suffragan diocese.
The territory of the Archdiocese was identical with the [[Austro-Hungarian]] [[County of Gorizia and Gradisca]] until 1918 when it was transferred to [[Italy]] at the conclusion of the [[First World War]]. Also from 1766 the archbishop was Prince of the [[Holy Roman Empire]].
