The history of Monforte D'Alba is very interesting: its name comes from the Mons Fortis castle of the era medieval. Noteworthy is the story according to which the Castellans were all followers of the Cathar ideology (a heterodoous religious movement defined as a heretic by the Catholic Church). Following a siege, the population was deported to Milan forced to choose between the abjura and the stake. Consistent with their ideas, most chose death rather than abjura it.
