Parish of San Polo di Piave, San Polo di Piave
On May 1, 1818, Pope Pius VII finally included it with the other parishes and their branches in the diocese of Ceneda with the bull "De salute Dominici gregis". When it depended on Aquileia it was called San Polo del Patriarca. The first church that we remember existed in the thirteenth century, was enlarged from 1650 and consecrated on September 19, 1686 by Monsignor Daniel Delfino, Bishop of Philadelphia, coadjutor to Patriarch John Dauphin and elect of Aquileia. It had a single nave, but in 1912 the other two aisles were added. In November 1917, after Caporetto's defeat, the church, like the rest of the country, was looted, vandalized and almost demolished. The damage, also taking into account the loss of works of art and archive material, was incalculable. In 1922 it was practically rebuilt and in 1923 the bell tower was rebuilt according to the architect's design. Vincenzo Rinaldo from Venice, who had built the previous one in 1908. The church was inaugurated together with the bell tower on October 18, 1925.

Historical Notes
The origins of San Polo are confused with those of the ancient "Opitergium". In the Middle Ages, from the tenth century, the German emperors took possession of it and for this reason the place was called "Court of Saint Paul". Later, until the middle of the fifteenth century, it was under the rule of the Patriarchs of Aquileia, represented by a Gastaldo. In 1445 San Polo was contractually ceded to the Republic of Venice, in 1452 it passed to Count Cristoforo da Tolentino, who was succeeded by his son Lancelot. In 1506 Angelo Gabriel, Venetian patrician, was made Count of San Polo and his descendants retained the feudal administration until 1805, when it was abolished. The old castle, built in the twelfth century, was practically demolished in 1680, nothing remains of it but a tower around which a large palace was built as the residence of the feudal lord (today, after radical remodeling, it has the shape of a Gothic castle ). San Polo is a parish church, but not a matrix. The healing of souls dates back to the eighth century, as evidenced by the "Placito di Liutprando", king of the Lombards, of June 6, 743. Then the Patriarch of Aquileia reserved on the territory of the diocese of Ceneda: "... Quatuor plebes in itinere suo positas propter viam vel viaticum...). The four unnamed parishes were: San Cassiano del Meschio, San Fior di Sopra, San Polo and San Remedio (which no longer exists) The Pieve di San Polo and the others remained subject to the Patriarchate of Aquileia until their abolition by Pope Benedict XIV on July 6, 1751, and then to the Archdiocese of Udine, which was abolished on July 19, 1751. January 1743. On May 1, 1818, Pope Pius VII, with the bull "De salute Dominici gregis", definitively included it with the other parishes and their branches in the diocese of Ceneda.When it depended on Aquileia, it was called San Polo del Patriarca The first church that we remember existed in the thirteenth century, was enlarged from 1650 and consecrated on September 19, 1686 by Monsignor Daniel Delfino, Bishop of Philadelphia, coadjutor of Patriarch John Dauphin and elect of Aquileia.

The Church of the Conversion of San Paolo is the parish church of the town (the toponym San Polo is precisely due to the Venetian pronunciation of the name of the patron saint): the building, seriously damaged during the First World War, was rebuilt in the first half of the twentieth century.
