Pizzoli

Pizzoli lies in the upper Aterno valley in Abruzzo, where the Apennine foothills meet the broad basin around L’Aquila. The comune stands northwest of the regional capital, in an inland landscape shaped by mountain routes rather than the Adriatic coast. Nearby Amiternum was an ancient Sabine and later Roman settlement; its archaeological area preserves a theatre and amphitheatre. Pizzoli was among the communities affected by the 2009 L’Aquila earthquake, an event that profoundly marked this part of Abruzzo.
