Orvieto rises on a a plateau of volcanic tuff stone, called tufo, and is surrounded by a beautiful landscape of green fields and vineyards. In the ancient town we also find the Pozzo di S.Patrizio - St.Patrickís well, built in 1527 based on a plan of Antonio da Sangallo il Giovane and which can be visited, the Palazzo dei Sette from 1300, the Palazzo del Capitano del Popolo (12th Century) inside which took place the meetings of the People's Council; the churches of S.Andrea (12th Century), S.Domenico (12th Century) and S.Giovenale (11th Century); the Palazzo Soliano (1262) within which, one will find two museums: the Museo dellíOpera del Duomo and the Museum of Modern Art. Moreover we remember the Mancinelli Theatre (1866), the Faina Archaelogical Museum, the suggestive Underground City and the Necropoli del Crocifisso del Tufo, dating back to the Etruscan period.
