Collecchio

Collecchio is a town within the province of Parma, Emilia Romagna, northern Italy. It is positioned 12.9 kilometers through avenue southwest of the centre of Parma. A predominant food producing region, it's miles home to multinational Italian dairy and meals business enterprise Parmalat and Parma F.C.'s schooling complicated, Centro Sportivo di Collecchio, and is hooked up through railway. The first symptoms of settlement in Collecchio date from the Paleolithic Age. Under the Romans it became referred to as Sustrina and later, in Christian times, Colliculum, because of its place on a small hill. With growing numbers of population in the Neolithic, deforestation caused flooding within the plains.

As an end result, settlements have been moved up into the hills. Collecchio's history is tied closely to that of close by Parma under whose powerful bishops the metropolis becomes dominated. The Roman Avenue Clodia Segundo linking Parma and Luni through Fornovo and the Cisa Pass was a mainstay for the neighborhood financial system and for the improvement of the historical Roman metropolis of Sustrina. The street can still be visible today, branching off to the left just earlier than the bridge over the River Taro after leaving Parma at the Via Aemilia.
