The '''Council of Rimini''' (also called the '''Council of Ariminum''') was a local council of the early Christian church held in Ariminum (modern Rimini, Italy). The council was one of a number of councils during the middle of the fourth century that attempted to conciliate the continued disputes with adherents of forms of extreme [[Arianism]] following the First Ecumenical Council.
In 358, the Roman Emperor [[Constantius II]] requested two councils, one of western bishops at Ariminum and the other of eastern bishops at [[Council of Seleucia|Seleucia]] that were to resolve the Arian controversy over the nature of the divinity of Jesus Christ that that continued to divided the fourth century church. The Seleucia was originally planned for [[Nicomedia]] but was held at Seleucia after an earthquake had struck Nicomedia.<ref>Philostorgius, in Photius, ''Epitome of the Ecclesiastical History of Philostorgius'', book 4, chapter 10.</ref>

Before the council met, Ursacius of Singidunum and Valens of Mursa proposed a new version of the creed, drafted earlier at a Council of Sirmium in 359, but not presented there.
