List of bishops of Västerås
This article relies largely or entirely on a single source. (May 2014) |
There has been a diocese centred upon the historic city of Västerås in Sweden since the Middle Ages, well before the Reformation. The first bishop of Västerås has been considered to be David of Munktorp (died 1082) but the sources claiming that are all of late medieval origin and are disputed. Västerås had several bishops during the 12th century but they are all unknown by name.
