The decrees of the Council of Trent required a seminary in every diocese, and multiple in large diocese, yes. However, did the Council of Trent establish seminaries? No, the organisation itself did not establish seminaries, requiring individual bishops to establish them. For example, Archbishop Charles Borromeo of Milan founded 3 separate seminaries in his diocese, implementing the Council of Trent as successfully as he could within his diocese to make it the shining example of reform.
