 In the Napoleonic era the municipality of Parè was suppressed and united to Gironico (also municipalities of Drezzo and Montano were aggregated to it).The union lasted until 1816 when the previous municipalities were restored.In 1928 the municipalities of Parè, Drezzo and Cavallasca were united into a single municipality called Lieto Colle (name inspired by Margherita Sarfatti, the lover of Benito Mussolini who had a palace in Cavallasca).
