Guided tour of the Duomo, a world-famous monument: a grandiose Romanesque-Gothic cathedral begun in 1290. The superb façade decorated with sculptures and mosaics is embellished with gold shimmering in the sun.

The interior is rich in works of art, including a masterpiece of Italian Renaissance painting: the Last Judgement cycle, begun by Beato Angelico and completed by Luca Signorelli. But there are many other wonders to admire: the great sculptures that only returned to their place in 2019, after more than 100 years of absence.

Among these is the Annunciation by Francesco Mochi, not to be missed! Inside is the relic of the Eucharistic Miracle of Bolsena.
