Origins of the name
The toponym originates from the patron saint of the fraction of

The commune of Sant'Omobono Imagna was constituted in 1927 with the aggregation of the communes of Mazzoleni and Falghera, Cepino and Selino. Thanks to a regional law of August 2004, the name was changed from Sant'Omobono Imagna to Sant'Omobono Terme.
