The diocese of San Antonio was canonically erected by the Holy See on August 28, 1874 as a part of the Ecclesiastical Province of New Orleans. It was subsequently elevated on August 3, 1926 to a metropolitan archdiocese.
The archbishop of San Antonio also serves as the Metropolitan of the ecclesiastical province of San Antonio, with oversight of the Texas suffragan sees of Amarillo, Dallas, El Paso, Fort Worth, Laredo, Lubbock and San Angelo.
Originally the archdiocese had more suffragans, but in December, 2004 Pope John Paul II created the new Ecclesiastical Province of Galveston-Houston and elevated the See of Galveston-Houston to a Metropolitan See.
