Description

Pizzo , also called Pizzo Calabro, is a seaport and comune in the province of Vibo Valentia , situated on a steep cliff overlooking the Gulf of Saint Euphemia.

As with many other places in Calabria, Pizzo claims ancient origins. The town may have been founded by colonists from an unknown site in ancient Magna Grecia, but there is currently no documentary or archeological evidence to support this. Consequently, the history of Pizzo begins in 1300 when the existence of a community of Basilian monks, a fort, and a fishing village is documented . The name Pizzo fits perfectly with the tuffa promontory that juts out into the sea near the mouth of the river Angitola.
