Porretta developed into one of the historic spa towns of northern Italy. It was an independent municipality until 31 December 2015, when it merged with Granaglione to form the new municipality of Alto Reno Terme.
Although administratively Porretta Terme is a frazione of Alto Reno Terme, the built-up area of Porretta is continuous with neighbouring settlements across the Reno valley floor. On the right bank of the Reno, Berzantina belongs administratively to the municipality of Castel di Casio, while remaining closely connected with Porretta in the local geography of the valley.
