614 Pia
614 Pia is a minor planet orbiting the Sun between Mars and Jupiter in the asteroid belt. August Kopff discovered 614 Pia on 11 October 1906 at Heidelberg, Germany.[2][3]
The Name
Its name may have been inspired by the Pia Observatory at Trieste, Italy, which German astronomer Johann Nepomuk Krieger (1865–1902) named for his wife, Pia.[2] Pia is Italian for "pious."
