Curgné originated in the Middle Ages after the ancient town of Canava was destroyed by a flood of the Orco River. Later it was held by Arduin of Ivrea's descendants, and, later, by the House of Savoy. It received the status of city in 1932. Sights include the Archaeological Museum of Canavese and the Sacro Monte di Belmonte, located a few kilometers outside the town.
