Mit einem Verzeichnis der Dekanate und Pfarreien 1928, sowie Stifte und Klöster. ? De facto unterstand die Diözese Basel bis 1792, de jure bis 1801 der Erzdiözese Besançon, seit 1802 ist sie unmittelbar Rom unterstellt. Sie hiess diocesis Basiliensis, 1888?1971 Diözese Basel und Lugano. [.] Der Bischofssitz und die Kathedrale befanden sich bis 1828 in Basel (Münster), seither in Solothurn (ehem. Stiftskirche St. Ursus und Viktor). [.] Der Aufbau des neuen Bistums wurde in den ersten Jahrzehnten des 19. Jahrhunderts behindert vom Gegensatz zwischen den meist liberal dominierten Kantonsregierungen und dem in seiner Mehrheit ultramontanen und politisch konservativen Klerus, mit dem sich an vielen Orten die Gläubigen solidarisierten. Im Kulturkampf (1870?1884) kam es zum offenen Bruch, als 1873 die Mehrheit der Regierungen Bischof Eugène Lachat für abgesetzt erklärte und ihn mit Polizeigewalt von seinem Amtssitz entfernen liess. Im Berner Jura versuchten die Behörden vergeblich, einen staatsloyalen Klerus zu installieren. Eine Folge der Auseinandersetzungen war der Rückzug der konservativen Katholiken in einen sozial geschlossenen Lebensraum mit separaten Institutionen (Zeitungen, Privatschulen, Partei, Vereine), die sich jedoch überdiözesan organisierten. Die liberalen Katholiken integrierten sich dagegen in den erneuerten Bundesstaat. Im 20. Jh. führten demografische Veränderungen zur Gründung neuer katholischer Pfarreien in ehemals geschlossen reformierten Gebieten, verbunden mit einer intensiven kirchlichen Bautätigkeit. (Aus: M.
