Galzignano Terme (Venetian: Galsignán[3]) is a comune (municipality) in the Province of Padua in the Italian region Veneto, located about 50 kilometres (31 mi) southwest of Venice and about 15 kilometres (9 mi) southwest of Padua.
Etimology
The illustrious academic Olivieri thought that the name of Galzignano came from the latin word Gallicinus, with the suffix -anu. This means that the lord of this territory left his mark on this area: his name inspired the name of the future town of Galzignano Terme.[4]
Hisory
The oldest document in which we find the name of the town of Galzignano goes back to February, 9th 952 A.D with the Holy Roman Emperor Otto I who said
"In Galzignano mansiones tres"
In other documents found in Verona, February 14th 1077 A.D, we find the quote
“Villa que dicitur Galzegnano”
As we can see, the origin of this town is very ancient. Due to the recovery of a boundary stone in 1922, we can say that this town had been occupied by the Romans during the Roman period. An ancient Franciscan monastery, built in 1226 A.D. is also located in Galzignano.
In the 12th-13th century of the Guelphs and Ghibellines, Galzignano was an important and almost autonomous area, controlled by the podesta of Padova This territory was later occupied by Venice, by Austria and France. It then became part of the Kingdom of Italy in 1866 A.D.
