Istituto Santissimo Salvatore, Orvieto

História

Once an Etruscan domain and then a papal fortress, Orvieto is sprawled on a tufa platform dominating a vineyard-strewn valley. The duomo is its most spectacular sight. The structure took centuries to build. Bold and extremely colorful, the façade is a tribute to Romanesque-Gothic architecture, polychrome mosaics and marble relief sculptures. It is a striking monument, particularly in the early afternoon when the dazzling Umbrian sun casts a glow on the building. The Corpus Domini Costumed Procession takes place in June. Weekly markets are held on Thursday and Saturday in Piazza del Popolo. In December, the Umbria Jazz Festival comes to Orvieto.
