What you can expect

  • Discover Orvieto Cathedral, from its beautiful, richly decorated facade to the awe-inspiring interior, where the light filtering through the alabaster windows creates a suspended, surreal atmosphere.

    The façade of Orvieto Cathedral is one of the undisputed stars of the city skyline, visible even from a great distance.
    However, when you reach it from the narrow alleyways and small streets of Orvieto, the façade always elicits surprise and amazement due to its majesty.
    Careful observation and an expert guide will help you navigate the rich ornamentation and read the stories of salvation told through the skilful use of architectural elements, statues, and mosaics.
    Upon entering Santa Maria Assunta, you find yourself in a space that, thanks to the light filtering through the alabaster windows, seems suspended and surreal.
    The spaces are large, bright, and solemn.
    The apse and the chapels distributed along the side aisles are richly decorated, and the San Brizio chapel, dedicated to Orvieto's patron saint, deserves special attention.
    It houses a striking cycle of paintings on the theme of the Last Judgement, created in the second half of the 1400s by Beato Angelico and Luca Signorelli.

    A visit to Orvieto Cathedral will catapult you into a world of masterpieces of art and architecture, biblical stories, and spirituality.
