ORVIETO
Set in a picturesque and unique position on the terrace
of a tufaceous cliff with sheer
dropping walls it is an important testimony of the Etruscan
period. The city maintains its now predominantly medieval
aspect and it’s artistic patrimony is best represented
by the spectacular 13th c. cathedral with a façade
enriched by marble bas-reliefs and mosaics and a richly
adorned interior with frescoes by Pietro Lorenzetti, Gentile
Fabriano and Luca Signorelli. (click
