Mezzocorona , until 1902 Mezzotedesco is a comune (municipality) in Trentino in the northern Italian region Trentino-Alto Adige/Südtirol, located about north of the city of Trento.
Mezzocorona borders the following municipalities: Mezzolombardo, Ton, Roverè della Luna, San Michele all'Adige and Nave San Rocco.
The name is believed to have been derived from the Italian words mezzo, meaning middle or in between, and corona, which means crown (and is likely a reference to the nearby castle). This explanation of the name is supported by the fact that Mezzolombardo (''mezzo, middle ''+ ''lombardo, ''Lombardy) was part of the area but split into two in 1194. Another possible explanation of the name is that mezzo came from the region's local dialect mez, a word meaning "wet".
In the region's old name Mezzotedesco, tedesco means German, while lombardo refers to Lombardy; in German, Deutschmetz means German metz, while Mezzolombardo's German name Welschmetz means "Romance-speaking metz".
