The Piscinola-Scampia station before the redevelopment.

The station, inaugurated on 19 July 1995 together with the extension from the Colli Aminei station,[2] consists of two levels: in the upper one stands the terminal station of line 1, while in the lower one is the terminal station of the Linea Arcobaleno (Piscinola Scampia station of the Naples-Aversa line) which between 2005 and 2009 partially restored the lower Alifana closed in 1976.[3]

It has been decided that this station will not be a fixed terminus, as the line will continue towards the Capodichino airport, the business center until reaching Piazza Garibaldi. The station will therefore be located between the Miano and Chiaiano stops.[4]

Since 2013 the station has hosted some works by the Neapolitan artist Felice Pignataro, following a petition signed by the citizens.[5]

Since 2017 the full name of the station has been changed to "Piscinola-Scampia", replacing the original name of "Piscinola-Secondigliano".[6]
