Pizzone is the heart of<br />

the Abruzzo, Lazio and<br />

<strong>Molise</strong> National Park<br />

(ALMNP). Its origin is<br />

joined to the<br />

settlements after the X<br />

century by S. <strong>Vincenzo</strong><br />

al Volturno Abbots,<br />

even if its land was<br />

part of Scapoli<br />

castrum. It was feud<br />

of S. <strong>Vincenzo</strong> Abbey<br />

and then of della<br />

Leonessa and Cestari<br />

families.<br />

Close to Mainarde<br />

Mountains, it is part of<br />

ALMNP from 1929 but<br />

only in the last times<br />

the Museum and the<br />

Bear Faunistic Area,<br />

with a specific<br />

Mainarde Project,<br />

represent the first<br />

effectively form of naturalistic<br />

tourism. The<br />

ancient village,<br />

which is<br />

around<br />

the <strong>San</strong><br />

Nicola<br />

Church, is<br />

very well<br />

preserved.
