Cimadolmo is a small town in the province of Treviso. The origins of the name are a
phytonym composed of the terms "cima" and "olmo", but the semantic aspect is not clear; perhaps it should be interpreted in a metaphorical sense as "extremity of (a place called) Olmo", anciently considered a sacred tree, planted during the late medieval reclamation because it efficiently absorbs humidity from the ground.

It is certain that a first settlement in the area had developed in Roman times, when a military garrison was founded in Stabiuzzo along the Via Postumia and near the Piave. For centuries this was the largest locality in the area, home to a market and a parish church mentioned in 1152 among the dependencies of the bishop of Treviso. The continuous flooding of the river, however, led to its decline: the church was destroyed and the market transferred first to Ponte di Piave, then to Oderzo.

Even Cimadolmo did not have a peaceful history, always conditioned by the tumultuous river: between the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries the church of San Silvestro was destroyed several times. Only between 1884 and 1886 was a dam built that allowed, during the twentieth century, a stable demographic and economic development.
