Pavullo nel Frignano

Pavullo nel Frignano (Frignanese: Pavóll) is a town and comune in the province of Modena, Emilia-Romagna, Italy, in the Modenese Apeninnes. It is home to the medieval Castle of Montecuccolo, birthplace of the 17th century condottiero Raimondo Montecuccoli, and of the pieve of San Giovanni Battista di Renno (8th-9th century AD). The town was extensively damaged during World War II due to its proximity to the Gothic Line.
