Mondovì, Medieval commune in Province of Cuneo, Italy.

Mondovì stretches across several districts including Piazza, Breo, and Pian della Valle, with its buildings positioned at 395 meters above sea level.

The settlement emerged in 1198 when survivors of Bredolo village established a new community, which later became Piedmont's largest city during the 16th century.

The Cathedral of San Donato and Church of San Francesco Saverio demonstrate the architectural evolution of Mondovì through different historical periods.

The Funicolare di Mondovì railway system connects the Breo district with Piazza, facilitating movement between different elevation levels within the town.

In 1472, Mondovì introduced the first printing press in Piedmont and housed the region's initial university from 1560 to 1566.
