    The life of the town takes place along the banks of the Bidente river and the layout of this long square, formerly Piazza Vittorio Emanuele II, is testimony to this.
    Here are the main public buildings of the country and one of the most significant religious buildings.
    The seventeenth-century Palazzo Giorgi (formerly Mortani) with the adjoining Resistance Park; the oratory of the S.S. Crocifisso or del Gonfalone (originally a hospitale for pilgrims); the current Town Hall (formerly Palazzo Crisolini - Malatesta) and the civic tower rebuilt in neo-Gothic style after the disastrous earthquake of 1918.

    The town is of medieval origin. According to historical sources, there were two castles and consequently inhabited areas: Mortano, to the right of the Bidente river and Santa Sofia, on the left bank. From the 15th century the two centers were divided: Santa Sofia came under the control of the Florentine Republic, while Mortano found itself a fiefdom of the Malatesta family and subsequently subjected to the Papal State. This administrative division was preserved over the centuries and remained in place even after the annexation to the Kingdom of Italy, with the Municipality of Mortano in the province of Forlì and that of Santa Sofia in the province of Florence. The reunification took place in 1923, when all of Tuscan Romagna administratively ended up under Forlì.
