It is believed that the first bishop was in fact Saint Lucius, an obscure king of England who died at Chur about the year AD 176. Over time, the bishops acquired considerable temporal or civic power until the town became part of the Holy Roman Empire, and by the 12th century its bishops were selected in turn by either the emperor or the pope. Chur remains a diocese to this day, overseen by a bishop.
