Roman Catholic Diocese of Aire and Dax
The Roman Catholic Diocese of Aire and Dax (Latin":" "Dioecesis Adurensis et Aquae Augustae"; French: "Diocèse d'Aire et Dax") is a diocese of the Latin Rite of the Roman Catholic Church in France. The diocese comprises the department of Landes, in the Region of Gascony in Aquitaine.

It was a suffragan of the Archdiocese of Auch under the old regime, but was not re-established until 1822, when it was again made a suffragan of the re-established Archdiocese of Auch, and was assigned the territory of the former Diocese of Aire and Diocese of Acqs (Dax). It is now a suffragan of the Archdiocese of Bordeaux.

It has been known since 1857 as the Diocese of Aire and Dax.

It is a co-cathedral diocese, with episcopal seats in the Cathedral St-Jean-Baptiste d' Aire and in Nôtre Dame de Dax.

On April 6, 2017, the resignation letter of recent Bishop Herve Gaschignard was officially accepted by Pope Francis following allegations that Gaschignard engaged in inappropriate behavior with young people.
