'''Orco Feglino''' ({{lang-lij|Orco Fëin}}) is a ''[[comune]]'' (municipality) in the [[Province of Savona]] in the [[Italy|Italian]] region [[Liguria]], located about {{convert|50&nbsp;|km|mi}} southwest of [[Genoa]] and about {{convert|30&nbsp;|km|mi}} southwest of [[Savona]] in the upper valley of the Aquila stream. It consists of the two villages of Orco and Feglino.

==History==
The two burghs were part of the [[Marca Aleramica]] in the 10th, and in 1091 they became possession of [[Boniface del Vasto]] and, from 1142, of the [[Del Carretto]] family, who built a castle in Orco.
 
In the 16th century it was acquired by [[Spain]], to which it belonged until 1713, when it passed under the [[Republic of Genoa]]. Later it was part of the [[Kingdom of Sardinia|Kingdoms of Sardinia]] and [[unification of Italy|Italy]].
