Anyone who is far from the borders of Busseto has heard of this municipality in the province of Parma with around 7,000 inhabitants, it was almost certainly because the great maestro Giuseppe Verdi was born in its hamlet of Roncole.

In Busseto Verdì studied and learned the first musical rudiments, thanks to the passionate Antonio Barezzi, who supported his studies, and who later also became his father-in-law, having married his daughter Margherita on 4 May 1836 in the Oratory of the SS. Trinità, now attached to the adjacent parish church dedicated to San Bartolomeo.

But Busseto, almost 2,000 years old, has an interesting story to tell that goes beyond being the birthplace of one of the greatest musicians of all time.

The first known mention of the village of Busseto dates back to 768 AD, which ended up under the control of the Pallavicino family of Lombard origins already before the year 1,000, when the County of Aucia, an imperial fiefdom, settled on the territories of Busseto itself and the neighboring towns. whose first news dates back to 972, which then became part of the Pallavicino State, which administered here through the Marquisate of Busseto until the first half of the 1600s, when the Farnese definitively took possession of the territories, while leaving them a certain autonomy.
