Established as a diocese April 15, 1910, the Catholic Diocese of Toledo includes 8,222 square miles in 19 counties with 322,523 Catholics in our total population of 1,481,.
The arms of the See are based upon those of Toledo, Spain, which bears a silver tower on a plain red field. By changing the field to one half of blue (dexter) and half of red (sinister) the arms are significantly different from the original, and there is effected, in conjunction with the silver tower, a combination of red, white, and blue -a new and distinctively American Toledo coat. The tower has been marked with a red cross to indicate that the new Toledo is to be ever a Catholic stronghold.
