Italo-Albanian Catholic Church
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
The Italo-Albanian Catholic Church, also known as the Italo-Greek Catholic Church, is one of the Byzantine Rite sui juris particular churches of the Catholic Church. Its members concentrated in Sicily and southern Italy, and are descendants of Orthodox Albanians who fled the Ottoman invasions, particularly after the death of Skanderbeg in 1468.
