In [[Christian denomination]]s, an '''archbishop''' is a [[bishop]] of higher rank or office. In most cases, such as the [[Catholic Church]], there are many archbishops who either have jurisdiction over an [[ecclesiastical province]] in addition to their own [[archdiocese]] ([[#Non-metropolitan_archiepiscopal_sees|with some exceptions]]), or are otherwise granted a [[Titular bishop|titular archbishopric]]. In others, such as the [[Lutheranism|Lutheran]] [[Church of Sweden]], the title is only borne by the leader of the denomination.
