History and Cultural Heritage

The old town of Pizzo, with its narrow cobbled streets and stone houses, is a living testimony of its medieval past.

Gastronomy and Local Traditions
Pizzo's culture is also manifested in its delicious gastronomy. The city is famous for its artisanal gelato and, above all, for Tartufo di Pizzo, an exquisite ice cream dessert with a melted chocolate heart, first created in the city's famous gelateria. You can enjoy these delicacies while strolling through the charming squares and admiring the view of the Tyrrhenian Sea.
