At the end of the 18th century, the Baptistery was enlarged by converting it into an Oratory, but it was also decided to downgrade the church, reducing it to a simple agricultural building. A new building was then added to the oratory, intended for the functions of presbytery, choir and small sacristy; while the church was renovated and transformed partly into a barn and partly into a living space. The conclusion of the last phase of restoration of the Pieve di San Giovanni dates back to June 2002, following a campaign promoted by the Archaeological Superintendence of Veneto which reconfirmed its archaeological importance. The archaeological excavations carried out led to the discovery of the ancient immersion baptismal font under the eighteenth-century flooring. A discovery of considerable value, unique in all of northern Italy and probably also in Italy of a testimony in an extra-urban environment.
