History
First ruled by the Counts of Ventimiglia, it passed to the Marquis of Ceva before coming under Genoese control in 1259. It remained with Genoa until 1815 when it became part of the Kingdom of Sardinia.[2] The parish church of San Nicolò da Bari in Piazza Parrocchiale [5] was built in 1893 to replace the church destroyed by the earthquake of 1887.[2]
