Stura

Stura was a département of the French Consulate and of the First French Empire in present-day Italy. It was named after the river Stura. It was formed in 1802, when the Subalpine Republic (formerly the mainland portion of the Kingdom of Sardinia) was directly annexed to France. Its capital was Cuneo.

The département was disbanded after the defeat of Napoleon in 1814. At the Congress of Vienna, the Savoyard King of Sardinia was restored in all his previous realms and domains, including Piedmont. Its territory corresponds more or less with that of the present Italian province of Cuneo.

Subdivisions

The département was subdivided into the following arrondissements and cantons (situation in 1812):
