geography

Aerial photo (1950)

The village lies at 467 m above sea level. M. located on a hill, and four kilometers southwest of the Lugano train station ; the formerly small mountain village offers a wide view of Lake Lugano . The village is located between Monte San Salvatore, which rises steeply from Lake Lugano, and the smaller Lake Muzzano, on the flatter, green, forested ridge that extends in between, which also bears the community name: Collina d'Oro (gold hill) , above Lugano.

history

The village was first mentioned in 1226 as Montegnola . The amalgamation of the monastery properties of Sant'Abbondio in Como probably led to the establishment of the Concilium Sancti Abundii in 1535 , which included Gentilino as well as Montagnola with the fractions Viglio, Orino, Arasio, Certenago, Poporino, Barca and Scairolo. An inventory of the Comasker monastery attests to the presence of a fortress near Arasio, perhaps the center of a Kastlanei which was identical with the Concilium. The village belongs to the parish of Sant'Abbondio di Gentilino.

Community merger

Until April 4, 2004, Montagnola was an independent political municipality, but was then merged in a municipality reform with Agra and Gentilino to form the new municipality of Collina d'Oro .
