Monticelli Pavese: a hidden gem of Lombardy

Hello friends, today I want to talk to you about a small and charming municipality in Lombardy: Monticelli Pavese. With its 629 inhabitants, it is located in the province of Pavia, in the beautiful alluvial valley of the Po river.

History of Monticelli Pavese

The history of Monticelli has deep roots: in the Middle Ages it was surrounded by the beauty of nature, the curve of the Po river and the monastery of San Salvatore di Pavia, which had the lordship of the territory until 1796. After the battles between Frederick Barbarossa, Pavia and Piacenza, Monticelli was assigned to the province of Piacenza. In 1816, thanks to the Congress of Vienna, the municipality of Monticelli Pavese was created, which is now part of the province of Pavia and the Lombardy region.
