List of parishes in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia

This is a list of current and former parishes in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Philadelphia. There are currently 214 active parishes in the archdiocese, divided for administrative purposes into four episcopal regions headed by an individual auxiliary bishop. These episcopal regions are then divided further into 12 deaneries, each headed by a pastor of one of the parishes within that deanery. The archbishop of Philadelphia, Nelson J. Pérez, has oversight over the whole archdiocese.

The cathedral church of the diocese is the Cathedral Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul in the city of Philadelphia. The oldest parish and church in the archdiocese is Old St. Joseph's in Philadelphia, which was founded in 1733.

Episcopal Region I Episcopal Region I comprises Delaware and Chester counties and is further divided into four deaneries (two per county). Auxiliary Bishop John J. McIntyre oversees the region.
