Historical notes

The name "Monticelli" appears already in the X century in the chronicles of the time and even today this village has kept intact its charm and its characteristics as village united and separated at the same time from the community of Quattro Castella: a place with its own strong personality still shared by its inhabitants.
Even when all the territory under the four hills took the name of Quattro Castella, the village of Monticelli continued to live its own life and its own history.
