    The Pieve di San Giovanni in Ottavo (called Pieve del Tho) can be found just over a kilometer from Brisighella. It is the oldest parish church built in the Lamone Valley.

    Its origins are very remote and date back to Galla Placidia, daughter of Theodosius, who had it built with the remains of a temple dedicated to Jupiter Ammon. The time of its construction is unknown, it probably arose between the 8th and 10th centuries.

    It is the oldest parish church built in the Lamone Valley.
    Its origins are very remote and trace it back to Galla Placidia, daughter of Theodosius, who allegedly had it built with the remains of a temple dedicated to Jupiter Ammon.
    The time of its construction is unknown, it probably arose between the eighth and tenth centuries.


    It is called "in octavo" because it is located at the eighth mile of the Roman road ("Via Faventina", indicated in the Peutingeriana Table) that connected Faenza with Etruria.
