The Piratello Cemetery of Imola which lies beside the Piratello Sanctuary, was initiated in 1817 on the area known as "Fratina" and was officially consecrated on October 29, 1821 by Cardinal Antonio Lamberto Rusconi, Bishop of Imola. The Third Order Regular Franciscans, who were entrusted with the adjacent Sanctuary of Our Lady of Piratello since its construction, were expelled during the Napoleonic Kingdom of Italy; their monastery was suppressed and its cloisters also converted into as cemetery. The TOR Franciscans only returned to the Sanctuary in 1943. The funerary art sparsed across the burial grounds converted across the years the necropolis into a small monumental cemetery.
