History
Vittoriana, in today's Tunisia, is an ancient episcopal seat of the province of Byzacena.

The Bishopric was founded during the Roman Empire and survived through the Arian Vandal and Orthodox Byzantine empires, only ceasing to function with the Muslim conquest of the Maghreb. The diocese was re-founded in name at least in the 20th century and it remains today a titular see of the Roman Catholic church.

There are five documented bishops of this diocese.
