History
The element which has characterized the history of Bagno di Romagna Terme is,
without doubt, the hot water spring. In the prehistoric period (as discoveries
of lithic arrows and same other material testify) the first inhabitants of
this area were not indifferent to the charm of this unique phenomenon of
nature which certainly favoured settlements. With the fall of the Roman
Empire, Bagno was annexed to the Exarchate of Ravenna and in 754 it passed
under the jurisdiction of the Church together with the territories of
Pentapoli.
The first information on Pieve di Bagno dates back to 871 when a bull by Pope
AdrianII granted John, Bishop of Arezzo, the lands of "Massa Balnei". After the
dominion of the Count Guidi family, from the end of XI century up to 1404, and
the short parenthesis under the Gambacorti family, Lords of these lands up to
1453, Val di Bagno passed under the control of the Florentines who founded
the "Capitanato" (Captaincy) and reorganized the administrative system
introducing a series of acts known as "Statutes".
