Cant remove pin from Apple Maps

Hello all, I have a pin on the maps app that I cannot remove. I’m not sure where it came from and I have no recollection of what is at this address. When I hold down on it to remove it there is no option to remove it. I have already cleared the significant locations in the privacy and security setting. Attached below is what the pin looks like. It doesn’t show up in my favorites, and I’m not sure if there is another list it is a part of that I just can’t seem to find

iPhone 13 Pro, iOS 16

Aw that worked !

I had no "Guides" and when I clicked it asked me to create one.

I created one and then when I got back on the Guides section, I had my newly created guide and another one named "All Places" that contained the guilty pin.


That was absolutely not user friendly


Thanks !

Similar to EdouardGat, but on macOS:

I clicked the problem pin, then the three dots in the pop-up and selected Add to guide > New guide...


Then in the sidebar under the newly created Guide I deleted the pin and it FINALLY disappeared on the map too.


I also deleted the Guide but I assume if you already have Guides you could probably just add the nuisance pin to any of them, then simply delete it.
