Parco del Poggio

Parco del Poggio, Urban park in Colli Aminei district, Naples, Italy.

Parco del Poggio is an urban park of 40,000 m² in the Colli Aminei residential area, laid out inside a former tuff quarry. It has a children's play area, stepped seating facing a semicircular lake with waterfalls and a stage platform at its centre, and a belvedere over the historic centre and the gulf toward Vesuvius.

The park opened in 2001 as part of a Naples urban initiative to create green spaces in densely built residential neighborhoods. The project aimed to provide local residents with access to outdoor nature.

The park's name comes from the tufa hill quarried here until the 1960s; the excavated stone went into the nearby Rione Sapio housing. The semicircular lake with its central stage and the stepped seating facing it are used for open-air performances, and the belvedere looks over the historic centre and the gulf toward Vesuvius.

The park lies in the Colli Aminei residential area and is reached by Line 1 metro, Colli Aminei station, or bus line 204. The grounds occupy a former tufa quarry, so the layout sits below street level, with steps and tiered seating between the entrances and the semicircular lake.

Within the park area stood a Roman funerary monument known as "la Conocchia", destroyed in the 1960s. Its name refers to the conical distaff used for spinning, which the monument's shape resembled. Nothing of it survives in the park today.
