History
The area around Burdio was a Roman colony, whose territory was divided between veteran legionaries. The current town was however founded in the 10th-11th centuries AD. The church of San Lorenzo was already active in 1146. In the 14th century Cardinal Gil de Albornoz rebuilt it as a castle, of which the two large towers (1376) can still be seen, while of the walls only a small section remains.
Main sights
The most notable attraction are the Bentivoglio castle (16th century) and the Villa Ranuzzi Cospi at Bagnarola. The town also houses an art gallery- Pinacoteca Domenico Inzaghi- and the churches of San Domenico del Rosario, San Lorenzo, and Santi Gervasio e Protasio.
