{{no footnotes|date=June 2018}}The Apostolic Vicariate of Ravenstein-Megen was a short-lived pre-diocesan Latin Catholic jurisdiction in a small southern part of the Netherlands. History Established on 1803.03.22 as Apostolic Vicariate (hence not entitled to a (titular) bishop) of Ravenstein–Megen, on territory split off from the Diocese of Liège, secularly belonging to two feudal components -after which it was named- of the Meierij van 's-Hertogenbosch of the Duchy of Brabant : the Countship of Megen and the Land of Ravenstein. It was suppressed on 1853.03.04, its territory merged into the Diocese of ’s-Hertogenbosch. Ordinaries (all Roman rite) - Apostolic Vicars of Ravenstein–Megen
