* '''Duomo''' The wonderful Duomo of Orvieto is the main 'must-see' sight in this town. Constructed in the 13th and 14th centuries, the black and white striped building in mixed Romanesque and [[Gothic architecture|Gothic]] styles, is one of the world's greatest cathedral. The setting, on the Orvieto hill and visible from miles away in the Umbrian countryside doesn't hurt either. But, impressive as the cathedral is, the piece de resistance is inside, the frescoes of Luca Signorelli on the theme of the Last Judgment inside the Capella di San Brizio.
