Catholic Church. Apostolic Nunciature (Germany)

Hide Profile

The apostolic nunciature for Germany was established by Clement VII in 1524 to represent the pope specifically in Germany during the period when the nuncio to the Holy Roman Empire under Charles V was concerned with affairs in Spain. However, the office was not filled continuously, being vacant in 1527-1529, 1532-1533, 1545-1548, 1556-1558, and 1558-1560. The office was abolished in 1560. The nunciature for Germany was reestablished in 1920. From 1920 to 1925, the nuncio to Bavaria also served as nuncio to Germany. From 1925 to 1934, the nuncio to Germany also held the title of nuncio to Prussia. In 1946 the nunciature moved from Berlin to the western zone of Germany. The office was filled by an apostolic visitor (1946-1949) and a regent (1949-1951) before a new nuncio was appointed.
