The origins of this town date back to the 9th century and during the Middle Ages it developed a highly complex municipal structure. It was later the seasonal residence of the bishop of Cervia, by whom it was ruled. Thereafter the town attained considerable importance, though it was always dominated by Ravenna, Pomposa or Ferrara, and traces of its grandeur can still be seen in the buildings. After the land reclamation of the 20th century, it became an essentially agrarian town.
