History

Of Roman origin, it belonged to the Monastery of "San Pietro in Ciel d'Oro" in Pavia (725). Then, it belonged to the church of "Santa Maria" in Lodi and, later, it became a fief of various Lodi families. During the Napoleonic Era (1809-16), the municipality of Brembio was attached to "Cà del Bosco". With the constitution of the Kingdom of Lombardy-Veneto, Brembio was aggregated permanently in 1837.
