At the ford of the Piave River in the area of “Stablucium” stood the Pieve of San Maurizio, considered one of the first Christian Churches in these areas. Around the year 1152, a Church was known to have been destroyed at that site by the fury of the Piave. The Pieve of San Maurizio included the chapels of Santa Fosca di Roncadelle, San Bartolomeo di Ormelle, San Michele di Ulmo, San Silvestro de Cornudella, and San Giovanni Battista di Salettuolo.
Due to the flood of 1344, the Church of San Silvestro was destroyed and thus it was decided to rebuild the village higher up towards the village of Ulmo, from which the name began to be Cima de Ulmo, later Cimadolmo. After a flood of the Piave River in 1567, the village, including the church, was rebuilt a second time; the church, enlarged in the 1700s, was again destroyed by the war of 1915-1918.
As a remembrance of the ancient Pieve of San Maurizio of Stabiuzzo, a small Oratory was built in that inhabited area, dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary under the title of “Madonna del Latte” and to San Rocco to commemorate the chapel of Salettuol which once belonged to the territory of the ancient Pieve of San Maurizio. This Church, destroyed during the Great War, was rebuilt and expanded in 1948 to its current shape. In the 1950s, the settlement of Grave di Papadopoli was also provided with a small but functional place of worship dedicated to Saints Gaetano di Thiene and Santa Lucia.
