Duomo di Orvieto

The most beautiful facade I have ever seen. Orvieto sits on a volcanic plug, the cathedral’s façade is a classic piece of religious construction. It contains elements of design from the 14th to 20th century. There is a large rose window, golden mosaics and three bronze doors. Inside is two frescoed chapels decorated by some of the best Italian painters of the period with images of Judgment Day.
