== History ==
The oldest evidence of anthropization in the municipality of Adro are [[Neolithic]] finds found in the hamlet of {{ill|Torbiato|it}}. The finds of tombs with grave goods from the late imperial period (III century) and [[Lombards|Longobardi]]<ref name=mazza1986p208 /> date back to a later period.

The oldest news of the village of Adro is present in the document in which it is mentioned as ''Atro'', dated April 10, 822. In it, the Abbess Eremperga gave a vico con corte to a certain Rampergo.<ref name=mazza1986p208 />

The castle was built between 13th and 14th century: in acts of 1006 and 1050 Adro is named as '''vicus'' and not as ''castrum''. Both under the domination of the [[Visconti of Milan|Visconti]] and under that of Venice, Adro administratively belonged to the [[:it:Quadra (administration)|quadra]] ([[Town Square#Italy|Town Square]]) of [[Palazzolo sull'Oglio|Palazzolo]].<Ref name = "bsvetrina" > {{cite web | url=http://www.bresciainvetrina.it/bresciaturismo/lagoiseo_franciacorta_adro.htm | title = "Adro" on "Brescia in showcase" | access-date = September 17, 2010}}</ref>

During the Venetian domination – popularly known as [[Domini di Terraferma]] – of the territory (from 1426 to 1797) the Bargnani family gained importance in the village, important in the life of the town between the 17th and 18th centuries, to whom the Dandolo counts succeeded.<Ref name = "comune "/>

=== Coat of arms ===
The town's coat of arms is formed by a capital "A" with a rounded top, of silver color on a green field, which is surrounded by three bunches of grapes with its branches and tendrils. Of these clusters, two are at the top, while the other is at the larger tip; the vine is golden, loading the bunch.<ref name = "comune" /><ref> Decree of the President of the Republic of April 22, 2008.</ref> The oldest form of this coat of arms appears in the frescoes [[Cinquecento|sixteenth century]] of the ancient parish church.
