Maronite Archbishopric Of Saida

The Episcopal Chair of the Maronite Diocese of Saida is located on Riad El Solh Street, southeast of the old city. This edifice was built in the mid-twentieth century after Maronite citizens had demanded that the bishop’s residence moves from Beiteddine to Saida. The See is considered the residence of the bishop (the diocese pastor), who manages its spiritual, pastoral, social, and cultural affairs and communicates with the city’s civil and religious families.
