Why Orvieto Cathedral matters
Orvieto sits on a rocky plateau, and its cathedral glitters with mosaics on a Gothic facade. The interior has vivid frescoes by Luca Signorelli. A fast train from Rome takes a little over an hour.
Talking points
- Glittering Gothic facade.
- Signorelli frescoes inside.
- Hilltop town.
- Easy day trip from Rome by train.
