History

Soon after Mauritius gained independence from the United Kingdom in 1968, Archbishop Michele Cecchini was appointed as the first Apostolic Pro-Nuncio to Mauritius on 1 March 1969 and diplomatic relations between Mauritius and the Holy See were established on 9 June 1970.

Papal visits

There have been two papal visits to Mauritius: that of St. John Paul II in October 1989, and Pope Francis in September 2019.
