Cedegolo, where the Valsaviore meets the Val Camonica

Cedegolo lies in the middle Val Camonica, on the floor of the Oglio valley, at the point where the side valley of the Valsaviore opens up. It is a valley-floor village, with its centre along the main road and houses climbing the slopes. Water has shaped its history: the old hydroelectric power station now houses the Val Camonica museum of hydroelectric power.

Transport links are those of the valley: the main road along the Oglio and the Brescia to Edolo railway via Iseo, which runs up the whole Val Camonica. Brescia is still a long way off, and for work and services people look to the larger towns in the valley. Buyers find stone village houses, blocks of flats from recent decades, and homes scattered on the slopes. Declared incomes are below the provincial average.

In 2023 there were 1,109 residents, down 11.0% on 2011. Over-65s are 26.7%, against 22.8% for the province of Brescia, and the average age is 47.7. Foreign nationals make up 9.1%.

The municipality is in seismic zone 3, like 152 other municipalities around Brescia, with a low expected ground acceleration of 0.062 g. In the valley the position of the house matters more: the climate zone is E, slopes in winter shade stay cold for a long time, and near the Oglio and the side streams the flood maps are worth reading.

The Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) publishes cadastral maps, so the report traces the address to its land parcel and checks landslides, slope and flood-prone areas on the official maps for that exact spot.
