オルヴィエートの地下遺跡

Etruscan and Underground Orvieto

The soft volcanic tuff under Orvieto has been dug into for nearly three thousand years. This list covers the hand-cut wells and caves below the town, the Etruscan necropolises of Crocifisso del Tufo and Cannicella at the foot of the cliff, the remains of the Belvedere temple, and the National Archaeological Museum, where finds from these sites are on display.
