Piedigrotta Literally, "at the foot of the grotto". A section of the Mergellina quarter of Naples, Italy, so-called for the presence of the Church of the Madonna of Piedigrotta near the entrance to an ancient Roman tunnel. The area was also well-known for an annual festival, which gives rise to a song writing competition leading to the commercial birth of the popular Neapolitan Song.
