Syriac Catholic Archeparchy of Damascus

Metropolitan see of the Syriac Catholic Church in Damascus, in full communion with Rome and the Antioch Patriarchate.

The Archeparchy of Damascus is the seat of the Syriac Catholic Church in Damascus, Syria's capital. As a metropolitan see without suffragans, it answers directly to the Syriac Catholic Patriarchate of Antioch. The Syriac Catholic Church is an Eastern Catholic church in full communion with Rome that preserves the West Syriac Rite, one of Christianity's oldest liturgical traditions. The archeparchy connects the region's earliest Christian heritage with the contemporary Catholic hierarchy.
