 Tours kept its historic suffragans of Le Mans, Angers together with Nantes and a newly constituted Diocese of Laval.In 2002 Tours lost all connection with its historic province, all its previous suffragans depending henceforth on an expanded province of Rennes (corresponding to the Brittany and Pays de la Loire administrative regions).Tours since 2002 has become the ecclesiastical metropolis of the Centre administrative region.
