History
The foundation of Tribiano dates back to Roman times. At the time it was a small agricultural village called Trebianus, which was crossed by an important Roman road, the Via Regina, which connected the river port of Cremona (modern Cremona) with Mediolanum (Milan). Later it was part of the Lodi area and its diocese. In the Napoleonic age (1809) Paullo became a hamlet of Tribiano.
After the Second Italian War of Independence, following the enactment of the Rattazzi Decree (1859), the municipality was assigned to the province of Milan. Despite the historical ties with the Lodi area, at the constitution of the province of Lodi (1992) the municipality of Tribiano decided not to be part of it, thus remaining in the province of Milan.
During World War I and the World War II, many male citizens from Tribiano went to fight at the front and in the different military corps. There is a dedicated monument in Papa Giovanni Paolo II (Pope John Paul II) square.
