The Archdiocese of Crotone-Santa Severina (Latin: Archidioecesis Crotonensis-Sanctae Severinae) is a Latin Church diocese of the Catholic Church in Calabria in southern Italy, created in 1986 when it was combined with the Diocese of Santa Severina. It is now a suffragan of the Archdiocese of Catanzaro-Squillace. In 2013 there was one priest for every 1,841 Catholics.
