The municipality was founded in 1971 on the municipal territory of Maniago.[4] It was built to rehome the people evacuated from Erto e Casso after the Vajont Dam disaster of 1963.

Languages

In addition to the Italian language, the Friulian dialects Ertano and Cassano, originating from Erto e Casso, are spoken in the territory.
