Girifalco lies in the center of the Isthmus of Catanzaro. Girifalco lies in the center of the Isthmus of Catanzaro, the narrowest point of the Italian peninsula, at the foot of Monte Covello (848 m above sea level), a subrange of Monte Serralta in the northern Serre region, at an altitude of 456 m above sea level. As some finds in the Caria district show, there were settlements in the upper reaches of the Alessi stream before Magna Graecia. In the early 17th century, Girifalco was a fief of the Caracciolo family and then belonged to the Ravaschieri family. After a few years, the fief returned to the Caracciolo family thanks to the marriage between Duchess Ravaschieri of Girifalco and a certain Annibale Caracciolo. From them was born Fabrizio Caracciolo, second Duke of Girifalco, the creator of a very prosperous period for the feud during his duchy, which lasted from 1634 to 1683 and consolidated the socioeconomic development of the city with the presence of the university and the feudal institution. Duke Caracciolo had the Reformed Convent built in 1635 and donated it to the Friars Minor, who erected a statue in his gratitude and placed it near the convent itself. Mayor Carlo Pacino commissioned important works such as the first municipal hall around the mid-1600s, the extension of the Church of San Rocco, and a few decades later, in 1663, the monumental Baroque fountain. In the 17th century, the inhabited center expanded more and more, and there were several churches (the ones of San Rocco and the matrix of the Pioppi district being the most important), two important monasteries, the Municipal House, the Ducal Palace (the Duke's residence), and even the city's coat of arms was built. At the end of the 18th century, another earthquake struck Calabria and the town of Girifalco, the one of March 28, 1783. The center was destroyed or severely damaged, as was the Pioppi district, including the mother church (already severely damaged in the 1638 earthquake and subsequently renovated), which would never be rebuilt. Its functions were transferred to the church of the Dominican convent, which thus became the new mother church. Text / Source: Comunicazione Girifalco https://unsic.it/comunicazione/girifalco/

The Village of Girifalco The village of Girifalco lies at the foot of Monte Covello, between the Gulf of Squillace and the Gulf of Sant'Eufemia, and in the heart of the Isthmus of Catanzaro, the narrowest point of the Italian peninsula. Girifalco owes its origins to the destruction of the two older villages of Toco and Caria by the Saracens in 836. The villagers sought refuge on the rock known as the "Pietra dei Monaci" ("Monk's Stone").

A unique little church built directly on the beach. Legend has it that it was built by Neapolitan coral traders who survived a shipwreck. Inside, various sculptures, statues, and decorations carved directly into the rock face are featured. There's an entrance fee (and there's also a nearby parking lot if you arrive by car).

The small church of Piedigrotta is a Catholic place of worship, completely dug into the tuff rocks, located one kilometer north of Pizzo, in the locality of "La Madonnella". Inside, it is decorated with several groups of sculptures, also made of tuff. The church borders the beach and faces west. An afternoon visit is very suggestive, when the sun's rays penetrate the depths of the caves, highlighting the colors of the mineral salts that cover the walls.

Beautiful rock church on the sea, a beautiful suggestive and characteristic place, one of the most visited places in Pizzo

Mandatory stop at the kiosk for a brasilena (Calabrian coffee drink produced here in Monte Covello)! If you are lucky you will find several locals ready to give you advice on the mountain routes.

The variant of stage IX of the Parco dei Ciclovia leads towards Lake Angitola, a naturalistic oasis declared a "wetland of international value" along which a pleasant cycle path runs. The Variant goes from Passo Fossa del Lupo to Torre di Ruggiero crossing the towns of Polia, Monterosso Calabro (with a magnificent historic center where the Museum of Peasant and Artisan Civilization of Calabria is located) and San Nicola da Crissa, called "the balcony delle Calabrie" for the splendid panorama overlooking the Calabrian coast of the Tyrrhenian Sea. For those wishing to take a trip to the sea, the magnificent beaches of Pizzo Calabro are only 5 km away from Lake Angitola.
