Itinéraire
During this tour you will walk through Orvieto’s charming, narrow alleys, and small squares. Your tour will be a very memorable experience,
One of the most architecturally important in Europe, for its Etruscan roots, and for the museums where one finds collections and displays that range over 2,500 years of history
A bird’s eye view of Orvieto from the medieval tower. The eye sweeps the horizon with its hamlets and castles that bear witness to the power that was of the medieval city.
The Church of St. Andrew is an admirable example of the Romanesque style, embellished by the adjacent twelve-sided bell tower. The imposing tripartite tufa facade features, at the apex of the wide entrance staircase, a red marble portal. The latter is embellished by the lunette with high-reliefs of sacred figures, introduced with the 1926 restoration mentioned just above.

About Orvieto
Orvieto is a hill town on a cliff of volcanic rock in Umbria, with a mosaic-fronted Gothic cathedral, underground caves and a long winemaking tradition.
Orvieto stands on a flat-topped plug of volcanic tuff, with sheer cliffs around it, above the Paglia valley in southern Umbria. Its cathedral, begun in 1290, has a Gothic façade of gold mosaics and spires, and inside the San Brizio chapel Luca Signorelli painted his vast Last Judgment around the turn of the sixteenth century. The Torre del Moro, a clock tower in the old streets, gives a long view across the roofs.
Top-ranked sights in Orvieto: Orvieto Cathedral (Duomo di Orvieto), St. Patrick’s Well (Pozzo di San Patrizio), Pozzo della Cava.
