Pieve Emanuele

Pieve Emanuele (Lombard: Piev [ˈpjeːf]) is a comune (municipality) of 15,876 inhabitants in the Italian region of Lombardy, located about 13 kilometres (8 mi) south of Milan, and about 20 kilometres (12 mi) north of Pavia. It is located inside of the Parco Agricolo Sud Milano.

The Lambro meridionale flows through the comune's territory, and its erosive action has created the Valle delle Volpi (English: Valley of the Foxes), which is located entirely in the town's territory. Pieve Emanuele is also lapped by the river Olona. The great presence of water made the construction of a network of artificial canals possible, thus causing the great development of agricultural activity in the area.

Pieve Emanuele is 12 kilometers (7.4 miles) distant from the center of Milan in a straight line, and it is located in the area known as Bassa pianura lombarda, in english Lower lombard plain. Alongside Locate di Triulzi and Lacchiarella, Pieve Emanuele is one of the three last comuni of the southern part of the metropolitan city, bordering the Province of Pavia, whose capital, Pavia, is at a distance of 15 kilometers (9,3 miles) from Pieve Emanuele itself.

The elevation of the town varies in a range between 70 meters and 100 meters. Within Pieve Emanuele's territory is located the lowest point of the whole Metropolitan City of Milan.

The comune is near various Strade Provinciali (in english provincial roads) that lead to the nearby comuni in the Pavese and the Parco Agricolo Sud Milano.

Pieve Emanuele is served by its own railway station, located on the Milan–Genoa railway, through which passes the S13 line.

There are also bus lines managed by Autoguidovie for Azienda Trasporti Milanesi, connecting Pieve Emanuele to the various other towns within the outskirts of Milan.

Since 1945, the elected local government of Pieve Emanuele had always been left-wing, until 2007: that year, the election of Rocco Pinto, candidate with the centre-right party House of Freedoms won the election. Here is a list of all the mayors since 1994 to 2025:
