Twin towns

Mazzano is twinned with:

• Saint-Germain-des-Fossés, France

The Municipality of Mazzano is twinned with the French town of Saint-Germain-des-Fossés, located in the Allier (Auvergne), ten kilometers from Vichy. The oath of brotherhood that sanctioned the formalization of the twinning was held in October 2002 in Saint-Germain-des-Fossés and on April 25, 2003 in Mazzano. Since 2010 the municipal administration, led by the mayor Maurizio Franzoni, has no longer considered continuing relations with the French citizen without confirming the municipal commission for twinning. Relations could be mended in 2025, after a delegation from the Brescia and French municipalities met in Chambéry in March 2025.
