Origins and history
In 1164 Voghera was definitively subjected, by diploma of Frederick Barbarossa, to the jurisdiction of the commune of Pavia. A parchment given in Pavia on 26 June 1271, still kept in the historical archive of the commune of Voghera, shows that Pavia sold to the community of Voghera the right to elect its own podestà and its consuls of justice. The town is a wine and industrial centre of the Oltrepò Pavese, in the province of Pavia.
