Pigneto

Pigneto is a residential neighborhood in east Rome bordered by three main streets and characterized by low-rise buildings painted in varied colors. The area contains a mix of residential structures with narrow passages connecting different parts of the district.

The area was farmland before transforming into an industrial settlement in the late 1800s. Housing for factory workers was built between 1920 and 1935, establishing the residential character that remains today.

Schools here bring together students from many different countries, reflecting the neighborhood's diverse population. This mix of backgrounds shapes daily life and what you see and hear as you walk through the streets.

The neighborhood is well served by Metro Line C, with two stations within the district boundaries. Walking is the best way to explore the area and see the details of buildings and streets up close.

Artists regularly paint building walls throughout the neighborhood with colorful works and messages. An old industrial complex houses a community center that includes an artificial lake within its structures.
