The settlement was abandoned in 1561 due to damage from hurricanes that destroyed the settlers supplies. Our diocese enjoys the distinction of being a "dual see" diocese. It has two centers from which the bishop governs – Pensacola and Tallahassee. Each see has a cathedral, the Cathedral of the Sacred Heart in Pensacola and the Co-Cathedral of St. Thomas More in Tallahassee.
