Derovere

Welcome to Derovere!

Hello everyone, today we'll talk about the small town of Derovere, located in the beautiful region of Lombardy. Derovere is a place with ancient and fascinating origins, which has gone through many historical phases over the centuries.

History

The original name of the village was ''De' Rovere'', but during the Napoleonic era (in 1810), it was suppressed and the following year, in 1816, regained its autonomy thanks to the establishment of the Lombardo-Veneto Kingdom. At the Unification of Italy in 1861, despite its modest number of inhabitants, Derovere had 345 residents. In 1868, the town was enriched by Ca' de' Bonavogli and Casalorzo Geroldi.

Derovere: history and points of interest in Lombardy.

Society

It is interesting to note that in the last 60 years the town has undergone a demographic decline of about 75%. These numbers are probably influenced by emigration to larger cities or abroad.

Demographic geography

In addition to the main town, the city includes several inhabited hamlets such as Ca' de' Bonavogli, Casalorzo Geroldi, Casalorzo Boldori, Cà de' Cervi, Ca' de' Novelli and Ferabò. Despite the modest extension of the territory, the city offers several panoramic views and interesting tourist destinations.

For example, the Po Park in Cingia de' Botti, the Sanctuary of Blessed Giuliana Puricelli and the church of San Giovanni Battista, located in Piazza Papa Giovanni XXIII, which preserves several important works of art.
