Mondovì

Mondovì (Italian:; Piedmontese: Ël Mondvì; Latin: Mons Regalis) is a town and comune (municipality) in Piedmont, northern Italy, located about 22 kilometres (14 mi) east of Cuneo, in which province it lies, and 80 kilometres (50 mi) south of the regional capital, Turin. The area around the town is known as the Monregalese.

Mondovì, located on the Monte Regale hill, is divided into several rioni (ancient quarters): Piazza (the most ancient), Breo, Pian della Valle, Carassone, Altipiano, Borgato and Rinchiuso; the latter, situated lower next to the Ellero stream, developed from the 18th century in conjunction with the industrial development of the town, when it started to be reached by railway. The Funicolare di Mondovì, a funicular railway reopened in 2006, links Breo with Piazza.

Mondovì is the seat of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Mondovì.
