{{unreferenced|date=December 2010}} The '''Bishopric of Havelberg''' ({{lang-de|Bistum Havelberg}}) was a [[Roman Catholic Church|Roman Catholic]] [[diocese]] founded by King [[Otto I, Holy Roman Emperor|Otto I]], King of the Germans, in 946. The diocese was suffragan to the [[Archbishopric of Magdeburg]]. Its most famous bishop was [[Anselm of Havelberg]]. Its seat was in [[Havelberg]] in the [[Northern March]] and it roughly covered the [[Prignitz]]. The [[Holy Blood of Wilsnack]] became famous while [[Dietrich Man]] was bishop. As a result of the [[Protestant Reformation]], the bishopric was dissolved by the [[Lutheranism|Lutheran]] [[Margraviate of Brandenburg]] in 1598. {| class="wikitable" |- ! Name ! From !
