Since 1535 it was under the dukedom of Milano, and after under the Spanish Kingdom until the 1706, when it has been released by Eugenio di Savoia and in the same year it begun the Austrian domination, but in the 1707 Austria gave Lomellina to Savoia. Mede, as all lomellina is an agriculture centre where rise and other cereal were grown, and recently handkraft activity started to develop, like goldsmith, so that the village is one of the centre of the international market of it. Today it is possible to see only the donjon, with square shape just in front of the parish church dedicated to Santi Marziano e Martino, built over the ruins of a pagan temple of the beginning of 1000.
