Syriac Catholic Archeparchy of Al-Hasakah-Nisibis
The Syriac Catholic Archeparchy of Al Hasakah-Nisibi(s) or of Al Hasakeh-Nisibi(s) (in French Hassaké–Nisibi) (informally Al-Hasakah–Nisibi(s) of the Syriacs) is a non-metropolitan archeparchy (Eastern Catholic archdiocese) of the Syriac Catholic Church (sui iuris, Syro-Oriental Rite in Syriac language) in Syria.
It is directly dependent on the Syriac Catholic Patriarch of Antioch and the Roman Congregation for the Oriental Churches), not part of any ecclesiastical province.
The cathedral of the Assumption of Mary in Al-Hasakah is its archiepiscopal see.
