History
The center has medieval origins and was formerly made up 13 yards ( Bortolon, CADIN, Casa Nova, Clamer, Dos, Fovo, Ghezzi, Melchiori, Monech, Pegorar, Perli, Ponte and Toscana). This fact is now only partially visible because the farms grew together in the course of urban development recently. Only the Pegorar - yard is still off somewhat.
In 1928, Andalo was part of the extended community Molveno, 1947 this incorporation was reversed.
From about the mid-20th century there was a considerable tourist development of the town. The proximity to several major ski resorts made Andalo one of the most visited attractions in Trentino in the winter season.
