==History==
[[Image:Luserte.jpg|thumb|left|Luserte in Quartino, a neighborhood in Magadino]]
Magadino is first mentioned in 1254 as ''de Magadino''.  It was also previously known, in German, as ''Megadin'' though this name is no longer used.<ref name=HDS/>

During the [[Late Middle Ages]] the village was mentioned when certain [[feudal]] rights were transferred from the [[Roman Catholic Diocese of Como|Bishop of Como]] to the ''Capitanei'' of Locarno transferred.  Until 1342, these rights included the right to collect tolls on goods traveling through the area.  The village of Quartino was, in the 11th to 16th century, a [[Benedictine]] [[priory]].  The priory of St. George belonged to the [[Fruttuaria|abbey of S. Benigno di Fruttuaria]] in [[Piedmont]], then to S. Gemolo di Ganna in [[Lombardy]].  In the 17th century the monastic estates came to the hospital in Locarno.<ref name=HDS/>

Together with the villages of Quartino and Orgnana, Magadino belonged to the [[parish]] of S. Pietro in Vira, until it became an independent parish in 1846.  The church of San Carlo was built in 1844–46.

The Codice ''delle strade di Como'' (1335) mentions a tower in Magadino, though no trace of the tower has been found.  A castle is also mentioned in a chronicle from the 17th century, but it is also lost.  The chronicle says it was built in 1365 on the orders of Galeazzo Visconti for the inhabitants of Locarno and destroyed in 1518 by the [[Old Swiss Confederacy|Swiss]].<ref name=HDS/>

Magadino was a major port and an important customs station at the transit route north from Lombardy to the cities of the Alps, and its importance grew in 1515 after the collapse of the bridge over the [[Ticino (river)|Ticino]] river at [[Bellinzona]].  With the introduction of regular steamship traffic (1826) and the opening of the road over the [[Gotthard Pass]] (1830) Magadino became a stop on the coach routes.  Many new warehouses, hotels and restaurants were built, some of which are still visible today.  The decline of the port began with the opening of the railway lines to Locarno (1874) and [[Luino]] (1882).  The town stagnated between the 1880s until the 1960s.  In 2000, the majority of the population worked outside the village.  In 2005, almost half of the jobs were in the services sector.<ref name=HDS/>

With winter overnight lows averaging near {{convert|-3|C|F}}, the local climate also has sizeable [[humid continental climate|continental]] influences. Even with the continental aspect, extremes seldom differ vastly from the means. As a result, the normal annual temperature range only goes from {{convert|33|C|F}} to about {{convert|-9|C|F}}.<ref name=Infoclimat/> Magadino has an average of {{convert|1806|mm|in|abbr=on}} of [[Precipitation (meteorology)|precipitation]] in just 101 days, due to heavy [[convection]] for much of the year.
