The Diocese of Conversano-Monopoli is a Roman Catholic ecclesiastical territory covering the towns of Conversano and Monopoli, among others. It is not a single physical site but an administrative diocese with its cathedral (the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta) in Conversano and a co-cathedral (the Cathedral of Maria Santissima della Madia) in Monopoli. Visitors interested in religious history can explore these cathedrals, which are open to the public and feature notable art and architecture. The diocesan offices are located in Conversano. While the diocese itself is not a tourist attraction, the cathedrals and related religious sites offer cultural and spiritual value. The diocese was established in 1986 through the merger of the ancient dioceses of Conversano and Monopoli.
