== History == In 1050 Tragurium became the seat of a diocese also known as '''Traù''' (in curiate Italian) or '''Trogir''' in Croatian.

On 1 May 1298 it lost territory to establish the Diocese of Šibenik.

On 30 June 1828, the residential see was abolished by papal bull ''Locum Beati Petri'', a Croatian dioceses reshuffle, which divided its territory over the then Roman Catholic Diocese of Split–Makarska and its own above daughter Šibenik.
