The Diocese of Chełm of the Latin rite was established in 1375. During the time of partition of Poland, at the turn of the 18th and the 19th centuries, an attempt was made to transform it into the Diocese of Chełm and Lublin. In 1805, it was suppressed, and in its place the Diocese of Lublin was created. These complicated events were not conducive to preserving the achievements of the Diocese of Chełm, especially material and cultural ones. As a consequence, only few ordos and directories of the Diocese of Chełm have been conserved. Therefore even more valuable are their found editions, stored in the archival and library institutions of Lublin, Warsaw and Zamość.
