I say it is a municipality of 624 inhabitants located at an altitude of 506 meters above sea level and extends over an area of 361 hectares. Like many other countries in the area, it participated in the ten-year war between How and Milan and over the years it was part of the lordships of some feudal families, including those of the Visconti, Rusconi and Marliani. During the nineteenth century, Giuseppe Mazzini went there several times to organize an expedition together with Andrea Brenta in an attempt to expel the Austrians.
Now the municipality has become mainly a holiday resort for the elderly.
