Recently, one of the few Piedmontese archaeological sites from the Neolithic era has been found in Treiso.

No findings have remained of the Roman period, but a marble tombstone, unfortunately without inscriptions.

After the year 1000, in the “Montersino” village a big and important monastery was founded. Of it nothing is left. Near the town stands also a big church, dedicated to Saint Alexander.
