The Apostolic Prefecture of Misurata is a Roman Catholic ecclesiastical territory covering the Misrata area. The prefecture is led by a prefect and includes a modest church and pastoral center where Mass and other sacraments are celebrated. Visitors interested in religious architecture or the history of Christianity in Libya may find this site noteworthy, though it is primarily a place of worship rather than a tourist attraction. The prefecture reflects the small but enduring Catholic presence in this predominantly Muslim region.
