The Apostolic Vicariate of Ucayali () was a Latin Church ecclesiastical jurisdiction or apostolic vicariate of the Catholic Church in northeast Peru.
History
The jurisdiction was established on February 5, 1900 as the Apostolic Prefecture of Ucayali, on territory split off from the Diocese of Ayacucho o Huamanga and Diocese of Huánuco. On July 14, 1925, it was promoted to as an apostolic vicariate and thus entitled to a titular bishop as its ordinary; the incumbent was elevated. The Apostolic Vicariate of Ucayali was suppressed on March 2, 1956 and its territory divided between three other new created apostolic vicariates: the Apostolic Vicariate of San Ramon, the Apostolic Vicariate of Requena and the Apostolic Vicariate of Pucallpa.
