This definitely worth a stop. Some of the stained glass windows seem to be in disrepair but there are some really magnificent features here as well.

If for nothing else, come to the city to see the façade of this magnificent Duomo. The mosaics alone are magnificent. The interior, although not as ornate as the façade, is beautiful and it's simplicity.

This is the jewell in Orvieto's crown. Following the narrow and winding streets you suddenly come up to a large open piazza with this magnificent building emerging into view. A must-see for anyone visiting Orvieto. The design and artwork inside are overwhelmingly beautiful.
