The history of Pizza Municipio begins in the 16th century, when the Spanish Crown decided to build a large square in the center of Naples.

In 1815, after the Kingdom of Naples united with the Kingdom of Sicily to form the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, the square was renamed Piazza Municipio. In 1888, the Naples Town Hall was built in this square and the square was renamed Largo Castello.

In 1860, Giuseppe Garibaldi, an Italian revolutionary, led a movement to fight for autonomy for the people of Naples. On September 7, 1860, Garibaldi and his army entered Naples and occupied the city. When Garibaldi arrived at Largo Castello, he was warmly welcomed by the people of Naples. People took to the streets and chanted "Viva l'Italia!" (Long live Italy!). The Neapolitan people's war for autonomy was successful and Naples became part of the Kingdom of Italy.

Pizza Municipio is a place associated with the history of Neapolitan struggle. This square is a symbol of the patriotism and free will of the people of Naples. During the war for autonomy of the people of Naples, there was a woman named Lucia. Lucia was a poor woman but she was very patriotic. She participated in Garibaldi's movement and she became one of its leaders. One day, Lucia was captured by the army of the Kingdom of Naples. The army intended to execute her, but she escaped. She ran to Largo Castello and found Garibaldi. She told Garibaldi about what had happened and she asked Garibaldi for help. Garibaldi was very moved by Lucia's story. He ordered his army to rescue Lucia. Garibaldi's army succeeded in rescuing Lucia and she became a symbol of the Neapolitan people's struggle for freedom.
