Italy has no single repository for church records. If the baptism, marriage, and burial records have not been microfilmed, you will have to contact or visit the local parish or archive in Italy. | Italy has no single repository for church records.

Virtually all church registers are still maintained by the local parish. Some duplicates, for limited time periods, may be housed at the central archives of the diocese. For example, duplicates exists for the Diocese of Torino from 1820 to about 1899. | Virtually all church registers are still maintained by the local parish.

You may find a list of parishes by searching for "parishes in (name of the comune)". If this isn't successful, try replacing the name of the comune with the name of the province. For the area of Italy where I do research, this search led me to the diocese which includes my area. I have found a list of parishes in this diocese on wikipedia and on the Italian language website of the diocese. The official webpage of the diocese is linked from the wikipedia page. | You may find a list of parishes by searching for "parishes in (name of the comune)".
