The Diocese of Saluzzo ({{langx|la|Dioecesis Salutiarum}}) is a Latin diocese of the Catholic Church in the Piedmont region of northwestern Italy, centered in the comune of Saluzzo. The diocese was established on 29 October 1511 for political reasons, to transform the Marquisate of Saluzzo into an ecclesiastic territory, and was directly dependent upon the Holy See.Pope Julius II stated in his bull which created the diocese, ...erigimus, creamus, et instituimus... et Sedi Apostolicae immediate subjectam esse volumus et decernamus.... Ughelli, p. 1227. Bima, p. 82. It is now a suffragan of the Archdiocese of Turin.[http://www.catholic-hierarchy.org/diocese/dsalu.html "Diocese of Saluzzo"] Catholic-Hierarchy.org. David M. Cheney.

History
{{expand section|date=February 2018}}
The diocese of Saluzzo was established by Pope Julius II on 29 October 1511, in his bull Pro excellenti.Ughelli, I, pp. 1226-1228, prints the entire bull.
The church selected for the new cathedral had formerly been the Church of S. Maria Assunta. In 1481 Count Lodovico II prevailed upon Pope Sixtus IV to establish the church as a Collegiate Church, headed by a Dean and six dignities (Archdeacon, Provost, Archpriest, Cantor, Precentor, Treasurer), with twelve Canons.Savio, Saluzzo e i suoi vescovi, pp. 53-60. The canonical establishment of the Collegiate Church was carried out by Cardinal Domenico della Rovere on 21 January 1483.Domenico Chiattone, in: Savio, Carlo Fedele; Patrucco, C.; Durando E. and Chattone, D. (1901). Studi e documenti sul duomo di Saluzzo e su altre chiese nell'antico marchesato, p. 184. As a cathedral, it was staffed by a Cathedral Chapter, which consisted of six dignities (including the Archdeacon, the Archpriest, the Provost, the Cantor, the Precentor and the Treasurer) and twelve additional Canons.Ughelli, p. 1226. Cappelletti, p. 266. Ritzler-Sefrin, V, p. 341 note 1. Chiattone, p. 256, no. 44. The new Chapter collected its various regulations into a Statute book, which was confirmed by the new Bishop on 3 November 1516Chiattone, p. 201.
A diocesan synod was opened on 3 August 1516 by Bishop Giuliano Tornabuoni (1516–1530). A set of statutes, containing eighty-seven clauses, was issued.Savio, Saluzzo e i suoi vescovi, pp. 138; 143-147. Tornabuoni then went to Rome, to have Pope Leo X rule on some questions about civil and religious jurisdiction in the diocese of Saluzzo. But on 22 October 1517 he had already been appointed Castellan of the Castel S. Angelo, which required his continuing presence in Rome; he was still Castellan on 19 October 1521, according to the records of the Chapter of the cathedral of Saluzzo.{{cite book|author=Pio Pagliucchi|title=I Castellani del Castel S. Angelo di Roma|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=8NFsygAACAAJ|volume=Parte seconda|date=1909|publisher=Polizzi & Valentini|location=Roma|language=it|pages=73–75}} Pagliucchi assigns the dates of July 1517 to 24 September 1522 to Tornabuoni's tenure. Saluzzo was governed by his Vicar General, Filippo de Pistorio, and episcopal functions were delegated to Antonio Vacca, the titular Bishop of Nicomedia.Savio, p. 149 note 2.
In 1522 the duchy of Saluzzo was attacked by forces of the Emperor Charles V, led by Pompeo Colonna, who were planning to invade Provence. The ducal family was forced to flee, and the town of Saluzzo was taken by the lances of the imperial army.Savio, pp. 167-168. In 1523 and again in 1525 the Marquisate was stricken by the plague. And on 20 February 1525 the whole of Piedmont suffered two large earthquakes.Savio, p. 170.
A diocesan synod, the fifteenth, was held on 5—7 October 1954 by Bishop Egidio Luigi Lanza.{{cite book|title=Synodus Dioecesis Salutiarum XVa: A rev. mo episcopo Aegidio Aloysio Lanzo, o. m. c. diebus 5,6,7 octobris 1954 in ecclesia cathedrali rite habita|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=Mc0sygAACAAJ|year=1955|publisher=Marietti|location=Torino|language=la}}

He was made a member of the Order of Knights of the Hospital of Saint John of Jerusalem, and Grand Prior of the Roman Province. He resigned the diocese of Saluzzo on 27 August 1512.

He was dispensed from the impediment of youth, but was never consecrated a bishop. He never left Rome, but was represented in Saluzzo by the Archpriest, Antonio Vacca, who was titular Bishop of Nicomedia. Sisto della Rovere died in mid-April 1516.
