Recent history

Prezzo was an autonomous municipality until 7 March 1928, when it was suppressed and incorporated into the municipality of Pieve di Bono. Re-established on 6 September 1952, the municipality was again dissolved following a referendum held on 14 December 2014, in which the "yes" vote prevailed in Prezzo with 89.57% of the votes. On 1 January 2016 the municipality merged with Pieve di Bono into the scattered municipality (comune sparso) of Pieve di Bono-Prezzo.[4]
