The Pigneto, which owes its name to a pine forest that characterized the area in past times and of which traces can still be found at every corner, is a former industrial district now retrained by the presence of artists and artisans.

Defined by Pasolini “the crown of thorns that surrounds the city of God” to remember the human suffering and poverty that afflicted the population of the place, as represented in his famous film “The beggar” nowadays it is very well know as a district of good eating and relaxed living, the typical “Roman way of life”.
