Collecchio, Administrative commune in Province of Parma, Italy
Collecchio is a commune in the Province of Parma located about 13 kilometers southwest of the provincial capital in the flat plain of Emilia-Romagna. The area is marked by farmland and hosts several important industrial and food-processing facilities.
The area has been settled since prehistoric times and gained importance during the Roman period under the name Sustrina. The modern name Collecchio evolved from this early Latin designation.
The town has built its identity around food production, with major dairy facilities shaping how the community works and prospers. Farming traditions remain visible in the surrounding countryside and influence how locals see their place in the region.
The area is well connected to the provincial capital, making it easy to reach services and facilities in Parma. When exploring, it helps to expect a rural and agricultural setting with flat terrain.
In 2015 the town introduced a remarkable rule requiring all fireworks within its boundaries to be silent. This measure protects the wellbeing of pets and wildlife in the area.
