    Template:Catholic Church Hierarchy A Prelate of Honour of His Holiness is a Catholic prelate to whom the Pope has granted this title of honour.

    They are addressed as Monsignor (typically abbreviated 'Mgr') and have certain privileges as regards clerical clothing.[1][2]

    Overview

    Before the motu proprio Pontificalis Domus of 28 March 1968, Honorary Prelates (HP) were called Domestic Prelates (Latin: Antistites Urbani). Those who held certain offices were also granted the title, such as an Archbishops- or Bishops-Assistant at the Pontifical Throne, or members of the Roman Prelature. The title was retained by archbishops, bishops and protonotaries apostolic who had been awarded it before their appointment to their higher episcopal or curial role.[3]

    The Prelates of Honor are entitled to the appellation "Reverend Monsignor". Historically associated with the chamberlain of the papal court, it is the second rank of monsignor: above Chaplain to His Holiness, but below Protonotary Apostolic.[4]

    Prelates of Honor durante munere are:

    • Canons of the cathedrals of Pisa, Siena and Vercelli
    • Canons of the Metropolitan Chapters of Genoa, Taranto, and Bologna
    • Dignity of the Metropolitan Chapter of Catania
    • Senior of the Canons of San Lorenzo in Damaso in Rome
