Background
The first documents that mention Campodipietra date back to the first decades of the year 1000. The history of the town, however, does not record events of particular importance so it does not appear in the chronicles.
Even the origin of the name is not supported by testimonies; it is not known whether it derives from the male name Pietro or the female name Pietra; it is excluded that it derives from Stone understood as rock since the area where it stands does not present this characteristic at all.
