Cuneo ({{IPA-it|ˈkuːneo|lang|It-Cuneo.ogg}}; {{lang-pms|Coni}} {{IPA-pms|ˈkʊni|}}; {{lang-fr|Coni}} {{IPA-fr|kɔni|}}) is a city and comune in Piedmont, Northern Italy, the capital of the province of Cuneo, the third largest of Italy’s provinces by area.

It is located at 550 metres (1,804 ft) in the south-west of Piedmont, at the confluence of the rivers Stura and Gesso.

Cuneo is bounded by the municipalities of Beinette, Borgo San Dalmazzo, Boves, Busca, Caraglio, Castelletto Stura, Centallo, Cervasca, Morozzo, Peveragno, Tarantasca and Vignolo.[1]

It is located near six mountain passes:

  • Colle della Maddalena at {{convert|1996|m|ft}}
  • Colle di Tenda at {{convert|1871|m|ft}} - Tunnel of Tenda at {{convert|1300|m|ft}}, {{convert|3|km|mi}} long
  • Colle del Melogno at {{convert|1027|m|ft}}
  • Colle San Bernardo at {{convert|957|m|ft}}
  • Colle di Nava at {{convert|934|m|ft}}
  • Colle di Cadibona at {{convert|459|m|ft}}.

History

Cuneo was founded in 1198 by the local population, who declared it an independent commune, freeing themselves from the authority of the bishops of Asti and the marquisses of Montferrat and Saluzzo. In 1210 the latter occupied it, and in 1231 the Cuneesi rebelled. In 1238 they were recognized as free commune by Emperor Frederick II.

In 1259 the independence of Cuneo ceased forever, as it gave itself, also to take protection against its more powerful neighbours, to Charles I of Anjou, who was then King of Naples and Count of Provence. Together with Alba, it was the main Angevine possession in Northern Italy; their rule (in fact interrupted by periods under Saluzzo, Savoy, the Visconti of Milan) ended in 1382 when Cuneo was acquired by the Duchy of Savoy.

Cuneo became an important stronghold of the expanding Savoy state, and was thus besieged by France several times: first in 1515 by Swiss troops of Francis I of France, then again in 1542, 1557, 1639, 1641, 1691 and, during the War of Austrian Succession, in 1741. In all the sieges Cuneo resisted successfully. Cuneo was conquered by France only during the Napoleonic Wars, when it was made the capital of the Stura department. After the restoration of the Kingdom of Sardinia, and the unification of Italy, Cuneo became the capital of its namesake province in 1859.

During World War II, from 1943 to 1945, it was one of the main centres of partisan resistance against the German occupation of Italy.

Climate

Cuneo has a temperate sub-continental climate, with cold winters and hot, dry summers. However, it is situated more than {{convert|500|m|0|abbr=off}} above sea level, which helps to make summers more bearable: the hottest month, July, has an average temperature of {{convert|21.6|°C|1|abbr=on}}. The coldest, January, averages {{convert| 1.7|°C|1|abbr=on}}. Annual precipitation is about {{convert|962|mm|1|abbr=on}}, distributed over 81 days. The rainfall pattern is similar to that of Turin, with two maxima—one primary and one secondary (spring and autumn) and two minima (summer and winter). The driest month is July, {{convert|44|mm|in}}. Snowfalls are frequent owing to high elevation and wind patterns.

Cuisine and food

Cuneo's specialty is Cuneesi al rhum, small meringues with dark chocolate coating and a rum-based chocolate filling. They are a creation of Andrea Arione (1923), who also registered the name, and sold them in the bar still located in the central square, Piazza Galimberti; another claim makes them a creation of pastry chef Pietro Galletti from Dronero.

Another specialty is "raviolini al plin", a small ravioli pasta made with meat and vegetables. The most famous brand there is Pastificio Boetti, also located close to the central square.
