Cadelbosco di Sopra (Reggiano: Cadàlbosch or Cà del Bôsch ed Sōver) is a town and comune in the province of Reggio Emilia in Emilia-Romagna, Italy.

It borders with the municipality of Guastalla to the north, Novellara and Bagnolo in Piano to the east, Reggio Emilia to the south, and Campegine, Castelnovo di Sotto and Gualtieri to the west.

Sometime later, the castle was built, thanks in part to Lords Della Palude who were vassals of Marquess Boniface of Canossa, father of the Countess Matilda.

The most ancient record in which the village is found, is a deed of gift drawn up by the notary Guidone on 6 April 1032 in the castle of Vicozoaro.

In 1215 Gherardo del Bosco, the lord of the castle and the court, handed his properties over to the St. Prospero's Monastery of Reggio.

As a result of some trade-ins from that year, the property went to the Benedictines of the St. John's Monastery of Parma, who lived there until the French Revolution era.

For reasons unknown, towards the end of the 14th century the populations of Vicozoaro were forced to move further east, where the current town centre is located.

The first houses that represented the nucleus of the future chief town, were built in the middle of the thick woods which covered the territory.

The uproar provoked by the popular French Revolution in 1789, even though considerably delayed into Italy, made a huge impression.

In the ensuing Napoleonic period, there were conscriptions and seizures of horses, pasture and food, even though the bloodiest battles were still distant.

After Napoleon's downfall and the Congress of Vienna's decisions, Reggio and Cadelbosco were reassigned back to the House of Este of Modena, led by Francis IV.

When the people heard the latest news of the revolution in Vienna in 1848, the seed of rebellion began to spread into the northern Italy, starting from Milan.

Always protected by Austria, the Duke returned to Modena in August 1848 promising reforms and greater freedoms to citizens.

As suggested by Patriot Dr. Enrico Terrachini, Cadelbosco got its status of "municipality" by decree of the Governor Luigi Carlo Farini.

After the downfall of Fascism and the armistice with the Allies in September 1943, a number of partisan forces were formed to fight the German Nazis and the Fascist Italian puppet regime.

Cadelbosco di Sopra has a strong agricultural economic base inherently linked to food production and processing.

The nearest is the high-speed Reggio Emilia Mediopadana AV Station, about 7 kilometres (4.5 mi) southeast of the town.

The local Pro Loco organisation promotes campaigns, initiatives, farmers' markets, food and events.

Traditional cuisine remains a strong part of Cadelbosco's identity, which takes its influence from Emilia-Romagna's authentic dishes such as tortelli di zucca, erbazzone, gnocco fritto, homemade pasta, zampone and cotechino with beans, pork and rabbit meat.

Cadelbosco has a local amateur football league team who plays its home matches at the new town stadium.
