The church of Sant Pere de Riu belongs to the municipality of Tordera since it was part of the old municipality of Orsavinya, but from a popular and ecclesiastical point of view it has always been linked to the parish of Pineda de Mar. It is also known by the name of San Pedro de Pineda.
It was therefore in 1974, during some work to widen the road, when several pits dug into the rock were discovered. This necropolis consisted of 8 graves aligned in parallel and oriented from west to east. Two had an anthropomorphic plan and the rest had a rectangular plan and section. Chronologically it is uncertain because they were not excavated, although the sources consulted point to a high medieval origin.
