As late as the middle of the nineteenth century, gold was obtained from the Ticino in the neighbourhood, but that industry has since been abandoned.
The earliest notices of Vigevano date from the tenth century, when it was favoured as a residence by King Arduin for the sake of the good hunting in that vicinity.

 Cariparma e Piacenza - vigevano
The idea of establishing a Cassa di Risparmio in Vigevano (now Cassa di Risparmio di Parma e Piacenza) was put forward by the Commission that governed the Hospital and other Pious Institutes in the city, including the ancient Monte di Pietà, founded in 1540, and that was formed by the most illustrious city personalities.
Following the development of the Institute, the premises were found insufficient and having funded another city hospital, the Bank stipulated a contract with the Municipality of Vigevano to purchase the buildings located on the northern side of the splendid piazza Ducale, then the City Hall.
