Historical Pizzo (pop. 9028) is very famous because it is the place where the king of naples Gioacchino Murat was captured and shot, Napoleone Bonaparte’s brother in law. His body was bayoneted in the Aragonese castle. Pizzo is also famous because it is the home town of Benedetto Musolino, patriot and conspirator of the Italian Risorgimento. In summer time the historical centre of this village is among the most lively and characteristic place in Calabria. Tuna fishing and canning are very important for the local economy which together with the beach draw many people from the hinterland of Vibo.
