 Mandello Vitta is also part of some thematic itineraries of the Province of Novara.The etymology of the name "Mandello" derives from the founder Rubaconte da Mandello, "Podestà" of the Commune of Novara during the 13th century, whose family was originated from Mandello del Lario.The name Vitta was added after the Italian Unification to distinguish Mandello Vitta from the omonomy Mandello del Lario.
