	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Saxe-Altenburg
		One of the Saxon duchies in the east of Thuringia; situated on the west frontier of the Kingdom of Saxony.
		The duchy became a separate state in 1826, when in consequence of the extinction of the Saxe-Gotha line (1821), its possessions were divided among the Saxon ducal lines, the territory of Altenburg falling to the Saxe-Hildburghausen line as an independent domain.
		By a Rescript of the Propaganda of 27 June, 1869, the Catholics of the duchy were placed under the Bishop of Paderborn, and by Decree of the Propaganda of 19 Sept., 1877, under the vicar Apostolic in the Kingdom of Saxony.
