This is a unique and highly decorated cathedral. Your 5 euro entry fee also includes entry to two attached museums. We took a break in between segments and found the artwork fascinating. A must see...

Spectacular building! Very unique. Much of the attraction can be seen from the outside but I think the €5 entrance ticket is worth it as the altar, chapels and organ inside are beautiful. Nicely preserved frescos. The entrance ticket also gains you access to a small museum and the space below the church. The highlight of Orvieto.

The history that involves this amazing architecture is fabulous. You can see the old testament and the new one carved on the walls of the entrance of the church. A really beautiful place and full of history. Hire a tour guide so you can learn more about it.
