History

[edit]

Lesegno's history starts in middle age, when in the 11th century, it was given firstly at the March of Turin, then at Asti's bishop and finally at the close Marquisate of Ceva. In 1525, the plague depopulated the village. In 1531 the emperor Charles V, donated Asti's domain and Marquisate of Ceva to Beatrice of Portugal, Duchess of Savoy, so Lesegno will follow House of Savoy's story.[4]
