Villa Cadè is often named in the chronicles of Parma. In 1280, it is said that in the village of Cadè Parmigiani began building a castle that was called the castle of the Cross and in 1285 was a castle gate in the direction of Reggio.
In 1286, he wrote that Parmigiani of S. Cristina and Porta Nuova came to the tomb to take the help Reggiani against Modena. Castle was completed in 1287 also said that Castel Navona and the castle was destroyed in 1295 by expelled Parmigiani, then rebuilt with the help of the Marquis d'Este, who then reported serious defeat in the next year campaign between the castle of the Cross and Cavriago. He then signed a peace treaty between the Marquis Azzo d'Este, the city of Ferrara, Modena and Reggio on one side and the city of Parma, the other days in July 31, 1297 in "strata Claudia." In October 1315 Gilberto da Correggio, Lord of Parma, came here with his troops threatening not to go back until they conquered Reggio, but 15 days later, due to rain and the beginning of the Winter, he returned.

In that year the river overflows in Montecchio Enza and waters flooded all the low places, Cadè and Calerno, with serious damage to the countryside and the houses of the period. In 1447 Cavriago and Cadè broke with the area of Correggio and spontaneously joined the Marquis of Este Leonello. On this occasion, the Cavriaghesi wanted to spend Cadè as their domain and so in 1451 the citizens of Cadè complained that the marquis was forced to ask all the elders of Reggio get a confirmation on the matter and obtained the Cadè same privileges of Reggio.

In 1486, residents of Cadè renewed their concerns by sending their agents by the Veterans April 25 where he claimed to be ready to go completely under the domination of Cavriago if it had been made in the field of Reggio. In 1490 the inhabitants of Cadè also found support from people like Matteo Maria Boiardo and others who have seen inappropriate reasons why Cavriago wanted to assimilate Cadè, which is required to participate in the construction of a canal, and so he was decided that he could not impose state Cavriago Cade, now his dominion. Appropriate as long as they remain the responsibility Cavriago were not imposed on them and had his own administration. Throughout the Marquis de Cavriago, from 1497 to 1796, Cadè followed his fortune, but it was a municipality with its own privileges and consuls. On September 1, 1796, the City Cadè decided to establish the Republic under the immediate protection of Reggio. During the Cisalpine Republic belonged to the canton of Cavriago and Montecchio, and then in 1803 he was united in Sant'Ilario, then in 1805 formed a commune with Gaida which lasted until 1815 when, under the sovereign edict of January 12, was closed last mayor Angelo Boni gave the cards to the Mayor Sant'Ilario, Villa Cadè was low until 1827, when he was finally part of the municipality of Reggio.
