История

4 сентября 1940 года епархия Нова Лисбоа была основана на собравшихся территориях, отделенных от епархии Сан -Паулу де Лоанды и Миссии Суйриса из Кунене , главным образом для обслуживания растущего европейского населения в том, что тогда было колонией португальской Анголы .

As time went on, it shed territory due to the creation of other dioceses :

• on 27 July 1955 to establish the then Diocese of Sá da Bandeira (now the Archiocese of Lubango)
• on 6 June on 1970 to establish its future suffragan diocese, the Diocese of Benguela
• on 10 October 1975 to establish the Diocese of Serpa Pinto (later renamed the Diocese of Menongue) and the Diocese of Pereira de Eça (later renamed the Diocese of Ondjiva).

On 3 February 1977, the Diocese of Nova Lisboa was promoted and renamed the Metropolitan Archdiocese of Huambo.

In June 1992, it enjoyed a Papal visit from Pope John Paul II.
