Nestled away in the Diocesan Archives was this wonderful, albeit fragile, calendar commemorating the Holy Year 1933-1934.
It depicts the complete unbroken line of successors to St Peter, as bishop of Rome from 42AD through to 1933 and Pope Pius XI.
We have added in the Popes since 1934 to give you an up to date resource listing all of the Popes.

Over time we will develop educational resources suitable for primary, secondary and tertiary students.
Classes are invited to visit the Diocesan Archives for a behind the scenes tour where we can discuss topics such as the importance of archives in research, how archives are cared for to ensure long term preservation and accessibility, career opportunities in archives and records management, and what can be researched at the Diocesan Archives. The Archivist can visit schools to talk to classes about the Diocesan holdings or other related topics.
Teachers are encouraged to contact the Diocesan Archivist to discuss their requirements.
