Your Itinerary

1

A Beautiful Cathedral built in the 13th century and famous all over the world because of its magnificent façade, the chapel of corporal, a white clothe stained with the blood of Christ and the splendi chapel dedicated to Saint Brizio, Bishop of Orvieto

2

A very interesting network of subterrenean and underground galleries which criss-crossed and extended over several stories for miles. Originally exavated more than 3 thousand years ago by the Etruscan to tap the water. Afterward, became refuge of people due to barbarical invasions. Then in the first half of the 1900s used as fridge.

3

From the top the view over the city is breathtaking.

4

This charming little town was founded by Etruscans around 2500 years ago on top of a hill formed by “tufah” stone. The area must have been really different in those days. The natural erosion and earthquakes have really changed the town a lot less space on the hilltop than it originally had. In 1695 one of those earthquakes destroyed the sort of natural bridge that linked Civita to the bugger nearby the town of Bagnoregio. The natural erosion hasn't stopped and the sides of the hill keep crumbling down and therefore they call Civita “ the dying city”. Civita, like an island is connected by a narrow walkway to reality and to the surrounding countryside; it takes us for away, not so much in distance as in time...
