Orvieto's Underground Wonders

Orvieto’s soft volcanic tuff plateau conceals a labyrinthine world spanning nearly three millennia. This collection highlights the city's subterranean heritage, featuring the Etruscan chamber tombs of Cannicella and the Crocifisso del Tufo. Beyond the cliff, the list includes the Roman river port of Pagliano and the Gola del Forello’s extensive cave systems. These sites reveal the evolution of the region from the Etruscan religious center at Campo della Fiera to a network of medieval wells and natural karst formations.
