Orvieto
A city suspended on tuff, among Etruscan remains, medieval and Renaissance masterpieces and flavours that tell the most authentic Umbria story. Orvieto sits in a spectacular location, perched on a tuff cliff overlooking the valley below. A city of Etruscan origins, it still preserves necropolises, underground tunnels, and artifacts that tell the story of centuries of history. Its strategic location has made it a cultural crossroads between Tuscany, Lazio, and Umbria. The undisputed symbol of the city is the Orvieto Cathedral , one of the finest examples of Italian Gothic architecture, with its façade decorated with mosaics and bas-reliefs and frescoes by Luca Signorelli in the Chapel of San Brizio. Also not to be missed is the Well of St. Patrick , a masterpiece of Renaissance engineering, and the Orvieto Underground trail, which reveals the subterranean city.
