The Diocese of Sulmona-Valva is a Latin Church diocese of the Catholic Church in central Italy, in the Abruzzi region, approximately 120 km directly east of Rome. Corfinio is 14 km north-northwest of Sulmona.
The current configuration was created in 1986, through the union of the two dioceses into one. The combined single diocese is a suffragan of the Archdiocese of L'Aquila. In 1818, the status of the Diocese of Sulmona and the Diocese of Valva was acknowledged, as two separate dioceses united in having one and the same person as bishop of both dioceses, aeque personaliter, an arrangement which stretched all the way back to the 13th century, and earlier.
