A new diocese with the capital in Łódź was formed pursuant to the bull Christi Domini issued by the pope Benedict XV on 10 December 1920. The new diocese began its activity from the formation of new structures. Its beginnings can be traced back to the beginning of 1921 when the pope nominated Wincenty Tymieniecki as the first bishop of Łódź; he had been then a parish priest in St Stanislaus Kostka parish, the church which was to become the cathedral of the new diocese. In the moment of its inception the diocese consisted of five deaneries: Łódź (9 parishes), area outside Łódź (7 parishes), Brzeziny (13 parishes plus one new parish, in total 14), Kłodawa (8 parishes) and Łęczyca (24 parishes), which were situated in the western part of the Archdiocese of Warsaw. The sixth Tomaszów deanery was added to those five deaneries; it consisted of 6 parishes taken from Brzeziny deanery. The basis for the re-creation of the territorial organization of a newly created diocese and of a number of Catholics who used to live in that area are the lists called Elenchus cleri saecularis ac regularis dioecesis Lodzensis pro anno for a given year.
