The Roman Catholic Diocese of Perpignan-Elne is a diocese of the Latin Rite of the Roman Catholic church in France. The diocese comprises the Department of Pyrénées-Orientales. This see continues the old diocese of Elne which was renamed and had its see relocated at Perpignan in 1601 after a papal bull of Pope Clement VIII. The diocese of Perpignan as it was re-established in 1817 was suffragan to the archdiocese of Albi.
