Roman Catholic Bishop of Gibraltar
The Latin Bishop of Gibraltar is the ordinary of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Gibraltar, covering the British overseas territory of Gibraltar, which is exempt, i.e. immediately subject to the Holy See, not part of any ecclesiastical province, nor is it part of any episcopal conference.
The Diocese's episcopal seat is located in the Cathedral of St. Mary the Crowned. The diocese also has a National Shrine of Our Lady of Europe.
The incumbent, the Right Reverend Carmelo Zammit, who was appointed Bishop of Gibraltar on 24 June 2016 and received episcopal ordination on 8 September 2016, was installed there on 24 September 2016.
Lacking independence, the tiny territory had no diplomatic relations, so no papal diplomatic representation.History
