History
Early history
First mentioned in 1332, it was stably inhabited from 1558 by lumberjacks from the province of Belluno. The colloquial language spoken in Casso is the bellunese, a Venetian dialect. Historically and culturally different from Erto, in which is spoken a Ladin dialect, Casso also belongs to the Diocese of Belluno-Feltre, different from the one of Erto.

Situated upon the Vajont Dam, Casso was one of the villages involved in the disaster of October 9, 1963. Partly damaged as Erto, the village vas evacuated and in 1971 its population was transferred in Vajont, a new municipality built near Maniago. In 1966 some of the inhabitants occupied again their houses to reform the village, as done in Erto, and the comune.[2]
