A true city on a hill





Dating back to the 11th century (some say older) is the picturesque Orvieto, standing notably filled with history. With underground tunnels and stairs in order to escape this elevated fortress in times of trouble and with the lovely cobbled walkways, faded painted arches and narrow pretty streets - a favourite stop.

Memories are painted everywhere.


Filled window boxes overflowed from above.


Driving our car through the narrow streets was an adventure.
