Pizzo, pretty and picturesque town, situated on the slope of a steep promontory, which is known locally as Lu Pizzu - hence its name Pizzo - is one of the liveliest centres of Calabria's Tyrrhenian coast. It is of medieval origin with the buildings and narrow lanes sloping down towards the sea.

Gioacchino Murat, who bad sailed from Corsica, along with a few followers, in an attempt to reconquer the Kingdom of Naples but who was captured as soon as he landed, was tried and shot to death in the Castle on October 13th, 1815.
