Carpi (Шаблон:IPA-it; Шаблон:Lang-egl) is an Italian town and comune of about 71,000 inhabitants in the province of Modena, Emilia-Romagna.[1] It is a busy centre for industrial and craft activities and for cultural and commercial exchanges.
History
The name Carpi is derived from carpinus 'hornbeam', a tree particularly widespread in medieval times in the Po Valley region. In prehistoric times it was a settlement of the Villanovan Culture.
The foundation by the Lombard king Aistulf of St. Mary's Church in the castle (Castrum Carpi) in 752 was the first step in the current settlement of the city. From 1319 to 1525, it was ruled by the Pio family, after whom it was acquired by the Este, as part of the Duchy of Modena.
The city received a Silver Medal for Military Valour in recognition of its participation in the resistance against the German occupation during World War II.
The town has one of the largest squares in all Italy (3rd place), the heart of the city, Piazza dei Martiri. It is surrounded by the castle, the cathedral, the town hall, and a portico with 52 arches. Usually every Thursday and Saturday the square hosts the local market.
Carpi used to be the finishing point of the annual Italian Marathon, which begins in nearby Maranello. Almost 1000 athletes enter the senior men's and women's race which has been held every year since 1988 in honor of Dorando Pietri, a long distance runner born in Carpi that lost his Olympic Gold Medal for being helped to stand up after a fall near the finish line. [1] The area was crippled in the earthquakes of May 2012.
Title
As a titular Duke of Modena, the current holder of the title of "Prince of Carpi" would be Prince Lorenz of Belgium, Archduke of Austria-Este.
