It is a comune (municipality) in the Province of Como in the Italian region Lombardy, located about 35 kilometres (22 mi) north of Milan and about 5 km southwest of Como.

Montano Lucino borders the following municipalities: Cavallasca, Colverde, Como, Grandate, San Fermo della Battaglia, Villa Guardia.

Origins of the name

[edit]

It is believed that the name comes from Roman times: Montano derives from montanus ('mountainous'),[4][5] and Lucino from lucinus (lucus, 'sacred forest')[4][5] or from the personal name Licinio.[5] In a work by Cesare Cantù, the territory of Lucino was indicated with the toponym Caneda.[5]

History

[edit]

It is widely believed that the first neolithic village in the Como area (3500 B.C.) is located in the territory of Montano Lucino.[4][5] Some pieces of pottery found in the area date back to this period,[5] as well as some flints even earlier than 1500 years.[5]

In the communal age, Lucino, which had a fortress of Gallic origin, sided with the people of Como against Milan.[5] The fortress, probably located where the so-called Curt dei Vincenzitt is today, was razed to the ground in 1240 by the Milanese, who came into possession of the fortress following the betrayal of a certain Arialdo Advocato.[5]

The annexes to the Statutes of Como of 1335 report the "comunia locorum de Montano de Trevino" and the "comune loci de Lucino" among the municipalities that, within the parish of Fino, had the task of ensuring the maintenance of some roads, respectively:

the "stratam de Cardevio a platea que est ad domos quondam Alberti Zanforgi usque ad Sassum de Cardevio" for the community of Montano and Trivino;[6]

the "stratam a stricta que est prope domos de Breda a manu dextra eundo versus Torrigiam usque ad strictam Bevulcham" for the municipality of Lucino.[7]

Also in the same parish, in 1751 the municipality of Montano already had jurisdiction over the cassinaggi of Vetello, Grisono, Grignola, Lucivosco, Cantalupo, Trivino and Dasso, while the municipality of Lucino on those of Lucino al Monte, Arcisà, Cassina La Cà and Cimiee.[6][7] In particular, the aggregation to Lucino of the Cassina de Scimiè (on which the commune was dependent for religious aspects)[6] took place that year, at the end of a long period (which began no later than 1652) in which the land of "Cimerio" had constituted an autonomous commune of the parish of Fino.[8]

In the same period, the two communes of Montano and Lucino are found to have already redeemed themselves from the infeudation but were still subject to the fifteen-year payment related to the redemption.[6][7]

Between 1756 and 1757 Montano definitively came to also include the territory of Cassina de Casarigo (also free from the infeudation), which shortly before had been aggregated to the municipality of Gironico al Monte after having formed a small municipal entity in the parish of Uggiate as early as the 16th century.[9]

A decree of administrative reorganization of the Napoleonic Kingdom of Italy dated 1807 sanctioned for the municipality of Montano the aggregation to Gironico,[10] while for that of Lucino the incorporation to Como.[11][12] The Napoleonic decisions did not survive the Restoration, which resulted in the reconstitution of Montano and Lucino as two autonomous municipal entities.[13][14]

Following the unification of Italy, in 1863 the municipality of Montano changed its name to Montano Comasco (R.D. June 28, 1863, no. 1,426).[15]

In 1928 Montano Comasco and Lucino were united in a single municipality called Montano Lucino (R.D. 26 April 1928, n. 1086).[15]

Church of San Giorgio

Located in the hamlet of Lucino, the church of San Giorgio was also originally built before the sixteenth century[5] and is mentioned in 16th-century pastoral visit records.[23] Rebuilt in 1674,[24] fifteen years later the church underwent new improvements. In 1842 the church was further enlarged and a new façade was built.
