Comune di Cumiana - History of Cumiana (2221 words)
Once again, Cumiana had to endure a siege (in 1368), this time under the Count of Acaia, who even hired English mercenary troops in order to be able to defeat the rebel, who was incarcerated and, later on, drowned in the Lake of Avigliana.
Cumiana, no longer being in immediate possession of the Savoyards, was subject to the feudalism of other noblemen and a long period of decline followed.
In 1517, Cumiana, which had already been afflicted by the plague, was forced to accommodate the armed troops of the Frenchman François I and in 1536 French forces invaded the Piedmont.
