Pieve del Grappa is a comune in the province of Treviso, Veneto region of Italy. It was formed on 30 January 2019 with the merger of the comunes of Crespano del Grappa and Paderno del Grappa.[2]

The municipality contains the frazioni (subdivisions, mainly villages and hamlets) Crespano del Grappa, Fietta, Paderno del Grappa.

## Physical geography[edit]

Located at the north-western end of the province, the municipality consists of two areas: to the north the mountainous area of the Grappa massif and to the south the foothills where the inhabited centers are located. The southern area is mostly flat, although it shows a certain slope with altitudes that gradually increase moving towards the Prealps. Especially in the stretch between Fietta and Paderno, it is characterized by the presence of modest hills (the so-called "motte").

The waterways are all streams that originate from the Grappa massif and, even when they enter the plain, remain embedded in depressions. The main one is the Lastego, a tributary of the Musone: it is born near Cima Grappa, descends through the valley of San Liberale and touches the three hamlets before entering the municipality of Fonte.

## History[edit]

On December 17, 2018, the consultative referendum was held in which the majority of voting residents voted in favor of the merger. In Crespano, 78.3% joined the "yes" vote, although the turnout was very low (33.8%); Higher participation in Paderno (49.8%), although the merger convinced a lower percentage, 57.7%. Given the outcome of the consultation, Regional Law no. 2 of 24 January 2019 was issued Establishment of the new Municipality called "Pieve del Grappa" by merging the Municipalities of Crespano del Grappa and Paderno del Grappa of the province of Treviso, published on the BUR of the Veneto Region on 29 January 2019.[2]
