history

Bieno was first mentioned in 1241 as Bleni , even if the place name is possibly of pre-Roman origin. In any case, the Roman road Via Claudia Augusta Altinate passed Bieno . In the past, the inhabitants of Bieno worked as traveling traders and stonemasons and were known beyond the town. The granite was quarried and processed from the nearby Rava group.

During the First World War , after the start of the Austro-Hungarian spring offensive, the Italian line of defense ran through the town, which is why Bieno was badly damaged and almost completely rebuilt after the war.

In the course of the fascist municipal reform decided in 1927, the municipality of Bieno was dissolved in 1928 and attached to the municipality of Pieve Tesino . In 1947, Bieno was given back its municipal rights.
