Diocese of Castra Severiana

The Diocese of Castra Severiana (Latin: Dioecesis Castraseverianensis) is a suppressed and titular See of the Roman Catholic Church.

History
Castra Severiana, probably located near Altava, or Ouled Mimoun in Algeria, is an ancient episcopal seat of the Roman province of Mauretania Caesariensis.

The onlyone bishop known of this African diocese is Fausto, whose name appears in 73rd place on the list of bishops of Mauritania Cesariensis called to Carthage by the Vandal king Huneric in 484; Fausto, as all the other African Catholic bishops, was exiled.

From 1933 Castra Severiana is a titular See of the Roman Catholic Church.
