Archdiocese of Alain

The Archdiocese of Alain is the premier see of the Church of Alain. Founded in 1056 following a split from the Diocese of Caraint, it became an Archdiocese in 1450, when the ancient Archdiocese of Matún was demoted.

The Archbishop of Alain is one of the Grand Dukes of the Kingdom, being Duke of Comeen and owning Comyndale House, near Blessington (which unusually is in a different diocese, the Diocese of Kilmore).
