Storicamente il complesso monastico, di origine alto medioevale (VII-VIII secolo), appartene all'Ordine di San Benedetto fino al 1221, anno in cui i benedettini furono allontanati da Orvieto da papa Onorio III per essersi ribellati al vescovo della città.
Historically speaking, this monastic compound dating back to the early Middle Ages (seventh-eighth centuries a.D.) belonged to the Order of Saint Benedict until 1221, when the Benedictines were sent away from Orvieto by Pope Honorius III for rebelling against the city's Bishop.

, ormai dimenticato, che Papa Paolo III Farnese si dice non facesse mai mancare alla sua mensa. Può darsi che qualche contadino del posto in vena di generosità ve lo faccia ancora assaggiare!
red wine, nowadays forgotten, used to come from Sugano's vineyards, and it is said that this wine would never be missing from the table of Pope Paul III. If you are lucky, you may meet some farmer in a generous mood, who will let you try some!

di Collodi e per varie mostre allestite in Italia e all'estero e, proprio negli anni di attività per la cattedrale orvietana, l'incarico per il Monumento a papa Giovanni XXIII destinato alla basilica vaticana.
in Collodi (Monument to Collodi's Pinocchio) and for various exhibitions held in Italy and abroad; and in fact, while he was working for Orvieto's Cathedral, he was also entrusted with the task of making the Monumento a Papa Giovanni XXIII (monument to Pope John XXIII) for the Vatican basilica.
  Il Duomo e il miracolo ...  
Accanto a questa tradizione, è fatto storico comprovato che la vecchia Chiesa episcopale di Santa Maria Prisca era talmente mal ridotta che le cerimonie più importanti dovevano essere tenute in altri luoghi di culto; e che l'11 agosto 1264 il papa Urbano IV promulgava la bolla
Besides this tradition, it is a proven fact that the old Church of Saint Mary Prisca was in such a bad condition that the most important ceremonies needed to be held in other places of worship; also, Pope Urban IV had issued the
  La fabbrica del Duomo  
La prima pietra per la costruzione del Duomo di Orvieto fu posta il 13 novembre 1290 da papa Nicolò IV che scese, con il suo seguito, nello scavo delle fondamenta tra due ali di popolo, a significare l'importanza dell'ambiziosa opera.
The construction of Orvieto's new and majestic Duomo took place on 13 November 1290, San Brizio's day. Pope Nicholas IV and his entourage walked down to the foundations pit between two wings of people, under the eyes of the civil authorities, whose attendance confirmed the State's commitment to find the resources necessary for the realization of such an ambitious project. The Municipality sets up the Opera del Duomo, a public body entrusted with the task of supervising the works.
  Solennità del Corpus Do...  
Per tutti gli orvietani, l'evento cittadino più atteso e carico di significati. Merito del fatto che proprio da Orvieto, nel lontano agosto del 1264, la solenne festa del Corpus Domini venne istituita da papa Urbano IV con la bolla
This is one of the main celebrations of the liturgical year for the Catholic Church. For the Orvietani it is the most awaited event of the year, and an extremely meaningful one. This is due to the fact that it was from Orvieto that Pope Urban IV established the holiday of the Corpus Domini back in August 1264 with the
  Pozzo di San Patrizio  
L'opera, commissionata a Antonio da Sangallo il giovane nel 1527, fu voluta da papa Clemente VII, più o meno contemporaneamente alla risistemazione del Pozzo della Cava posto sull'altro versante della rupe, per assicurare acqua alla città in caso di assedio.
Its construction was commissioned to Antonio da Sangallo the Younger in 1527, at the behest of Pope Clement VII, approximately at the same time when the Pozzo della Cava underwent restoration on the opposite side of the cliff, in order to ensure water supply, should the city be under siege. Completed in 1537 under Pope Paul III (born Farnese), given its size and the accurate project layout, the well shows its ambition to be remembered as a daring and majestic enterprise.
  La Libreria Albèri  
La mirabile sala fu edificata nel 1499 per accogliere la biblioteca del potente vescovo Antonio Albèri (1423 ca – 1505), già arcidiacono del Duomo e precettore del futuro papa Pio III Piccolomini. Albèri commissionò questo suo studio ispirandosi alla Libreria Piccolomini di Siena, anch'essa adiacente al rispettivo Duomo, tanto che le due Librerie costituiscono un unico e singolare esempio di biblioteche annesse a una Cattedrale.
Opened to the public in April 2012, the Albèri Library completes and adds value to the Museum of Orvieto's Opera del Duomo with another important venue. This suggestive ambience, strictly connected to the Cathedral, can be accessed today from the Palazzi Papali. The marvellous hall was built in 1499 to host the Library of powerful Bishop Antonio Albèri (1423 - 1505 approximately) former archdeacon of the Duomo and preceptor of future Pope Pius III (born Piccolomini). Albèri commissioned this study room inspired by Siena's Piccolomini Library, (which is also adjacent to its respective Duomo), and in fact the two Libraries represent a unique and peculiar example of libraries adjacent to Cathedrals.
  Il Duomo e il miracolo ...  
Appresa la notizia del prodigio, il papa Urbano IV, che dal 1262 risiedeva a Orvieto, inviò a Bolsena il vescovo della città per condurre nella Chiesa di Santa Maria la reliquia del sacro lino che, accolta dal pontefice sul ponte di Rio Chiaro, fu accompagnata fino alla meta da una solenne processione.
As it is usually narrated, Orvieto's Duomo was built in order to celebrate a fundamental event for the Christian world: the 1263 Miracle of Bolsena. As narrated by a sacred representation dating back to the first half of the fourteenth century and the subsequent popular tradition, a Bohemian priest, tormented by the doubt whether the consecrated host was Christ's body and blood, went on a pilgrimage to Rome in 1263 to strengthen his faith. On his way back he stopped in Bolsena to celebrate mass at the altar of Saint Christina's Basilica; at the moment of consecration he saw the broken host spill some stills of blood, that stained the Corporal, a linen cloth used during the functions. Once Pope Urban IV, who had been residing in Orvieto since 1262, learnt about the miracle, he sent the town's Bishop to Bolsena so that the latter would take the relic represented by the sacred linen cloth to the Church of Saint Mary; the Pontiff himself waited by the Rio Chiaro bridge for the relic to arrive and a solemn procession accompanied it to its final destination. The Orvietani thought the existing cathedral appeared too modest to host such a precious relic, therefore they decided a new religious building should be constructed, splendid and magnificent enough to match such a great miracle.
  Storia Orvieto  
Nel 1527 il Papa Clemente VII, rifugiatosi a Orvieto durante il sacco di Roma, fa realizzare dal grande architetto Antonio da Sangallo il Giovane il celebre Pozzo della Rocca, poi chiamato di San Patrizio, che con un arduo sistema di scale concentriche raggiungeva le falde acquifere del fiume Paglia.
. In the sixth Canto of the Purgatory, Dante Alighieri confirms not only the importance of this city on the Italian scenario, but also the echo of the blood-stained events involving the Guelph Monaldeschi and the Ghibelline Filippeschi: the two families tearing down each other’s towers, confiscating each other's properties, prosecuting each other with the background of religious disputes and the development of heresies while Popes resided on and off in Orvieto. The figure of Boniface VIII stands out amongst the Pontiffs: in fact he proceeded against the town with excommunications and interdicts in order to bring it to submission. He succeeded and was even appointed People's Captain; he had the construction of the Papal Palace (Palazzo Soliano) started and two statues placed above the city’s most important doors: Porta Maggiore and Porta Postierla. This is what Italian author Pier Paolo Pasolini wrote in “Le Ceneri di Gramsci”: “Boniface’s bust/ about to become dust, defended/ by Baroque height in the medieval niche of the wall”

La Chiesa di San Giovanni Evangelista fu innalzata nel secolo X per volontà del papa Giovanni X. Crollata, alla fine del Seicento, a causa di un terremoto, fu integralmente ricostruita, nei primi anni del 1700, su disegni dell'architetto Arrigoni.
The Church of Saint John the Evangelist was erected during the tenth century at the behest of Pope John the Tenth. It collapsed following an earthquake at the end of the seventeenth century, and was completely rebuilt in the early eighteenth century, based on a design by architect Arrigoni. The facade underwent several restorations over time and the bell tower, built in 1928 but bearing a fifteenth century shape, is owed to architect Luigi Branzani.
  Storia del vino di Orvi...  
Per andare avanti nei secoli, quanto fosse stimato e desiderato il vino orvietano è espresso, in modo sagace e divertente, nella petizione presentata per voce di Pasquino a Papa Paolo V Borghese, il giorno dell'inaugurazione dell'acquedotto romano all'Acqua Marcia alla fine del 1600:
(my appearance was greeted by friends and by that great man that is the General, with a cheer) Mi fé cenno di avvicinarmi a lui e porgendomi un bicchiere colmo di vino d'Orvieto mi disse: (he beckoned me to go closer to him, handed me a glassful of Orvieto's wine, and said): bevete anche voi alla buona fortuna d'Italia"(you too drink to the good luck of Italy)

Episodio non esemplare ma curioso, nel quinto Centenario del Duomo (1790) alcuni mosaici originali furono staccati e offerti in omaggio a papa Pio VI: di questi, l'unico non andato disperso è il quadro con la Natività di Maria, dal 1891 conservato al
Many master glassmakers, painters and mosaicists were involved in this venture: Lorenzo Maitani, under whose direction the tower mosaic decorations, the bands and the frames were made, Giovanni di Bonino, who worked on the tribuna glass window, and Orcagna, who realized the Baptism of Jesus Christ between 1359 and 1360. Friar Giovanni di Leonardello and painter Ugolino di Prete Ilario the author of the drawings, the latter from Orvieto, created the mosaics of the Annunciation and the Nativity, while Cesare Nebbia worked on the Coronation on the main frontispiece in the sixteenth century. Many mosaic scenes underwent renovation at a later stage, which altered the original shape of decorations, or were replaced by new mosaics in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. A curious event, albeit not a usual one, occurred upon the celebration of the Duomo's fifth centenary (1790) when some of the original mosaics were detached and given to Pope Pius VI: the only mosaic scene out of those which has not been lost is the Nativity of Mary, which has been kept in London's

Esisteva come chiesa parrocchiale già nel 1028, al tempo del Vescovo Sigifredo, ma si suppone che si trovasse qualche decina di metri più avanti, finché i frati minori della vicina chiesa di San Francesco, disturbati dai canti e dal suono delle campane, nel 1291 ne ottennero dal Papa la demolizione e la ricostruzione nelle stesse forme a cento metri distanza.
The nuns of the Good Man Jesus were then able to re-purchase the property and the monastery, with its domineering position overlooking the valley south-west of the cliff, survived and underwent several renovations until the final one in the 1990s, within the context of the regional post-earthquake legislation. The premises of the near convent of Saint Clare, that with its church opens onto the square bearing the same name, became municipal property during the course of the years and were mainly used as school buildings; they currently host the

A great celebration will be held in Orvieto on Saturday 14th June 2013, aimed at recreating the solemn medieval atmosphere that accompanied the Corpus Domini festivities over several days. This Festival is in order to celebrate the 750th anniversary of the Miracle Eucharist of Bolsena (1263) and Pope Urban IV's "Transiturus" papal bull (1264) that established the Festivity of Corpus Domini from Orvieto. The event is part of the Special Eucharistical Jubilee established by Pope Benedetto XVI in 2013 - 2014 years.
  Chiesa e convento di Sa...  
Al suo interno è conservata la cattedra dove San Tommaso teneva le lezioni di teologia (1263-1264) nel periodo in cui risiedette a Orvieto, subito dopo il miracolo di Bolsena, quando per ordine del papa Urbano IV scrisse l'Ufficio del Corpus Domini.
The church, the construction of which started in 1233, a few years after Saint Dominic’s death, is amongst the first ones built by the Dominican Order in Italy. The first prior was Angelo Gozio, who was said to have received his monk robe from the hands of the Saint himself, and who belonged to one of the city’s noble families. Only the apse and the transept are still in place from the original church, an imposing three-nave building, partly demolished in 1932 to allow the construction of the female academy of physical education. The church hosts the desk from which Saint Thomas gave his theology lectures (1263-1264) when he spent some time Orvieto just after the miracle of Bolsena occurred, and wrote the liturgy for the Corpus Domini festivity at the behest of Pope Urban IV. The legend has it that while he was absorbed in prayer on his knees inside Saint Dominic’s Church, a voice coming from the crucifix in front of which he was kneeling said to him:

In any case, even if legend more than real history, the traditional link between the Duomo and the Miracle of Bolsena has always been alive in the devotion of the locals; historians and scholars, such as Luigi Fumi, just to name one, have been aware of it too. Finally, Pope John Paul II, in the homily pronounced from Orvieto's Duomo on 17 June 1990, during the Corpus Domini celebrations, tried to clarify this matter, by stating: "even though the construction [of the Duomo] is neither directly connected to the solemnity of the Corpus Domini, established by Pope Urban IV in 1264 with the

  La fabbrica del Duomo  
Il giorno della cerimonia ufficiale di posa della prima pietra - il 13 novembre 1290, giorno di San Brizio - il papa Nicolò IV scese, con il suo seguito, nello scavo delle fondamenta tra due ali di popolo, sotto gli occhi delle autorità cittadine, la cui presenza stava a testimoniare l'impegno a trovare le risorse necessarie per la realizzazione dell'ambiziosa opera.
The construction of Orvieto's new and majestic Duomo and the laying of the square before it, required the demolition of two existing buildings, that is the Church of Saint Mary and the Parish Church of Saint Constant. Negotiations with the clergy were long and difficult, as the implementation of the project would not only require the demolition of the church: the cloister, five shops, the priests' own rooms and the parish residence, the cemetery and the sacristy would also be torn down; therefore the laying of the first stone of the project for the new cathedral, that had already been approved in 1285, only took place on 13 November 1290, San Brizio's day. Pope Nicholas IV and his entourage walked down to the foundations pit between two wings of people, under the eyes of the civil authorities, whose attendance confirmed the State's commitment to find the resources necessary for the realization of such an ambitious project. In fact, had the Municipality not granted financial backing to the construction through a suitable fiscal policy, organizing the town's and the contado's general land registry (1292) and collecting taxes from the castles of the territory, and had it not set up the Opera del Duomo, a public body entrusted with the task of supervising the works, the project most probably wouldn't have lasted for long.
  Le porte di Emilio Greco  
Le porte arrivavano in città l'8 agosto del 1964 e furono depositate all'interno della cattedrale, dove papa Paolo VI, in visita pastorale a Orvieto, poté visionarle ed esprimere il suo apprezzamento.
Once the sketches were approved by the relevant committee, Emilio Greco delivered the massive bronze doors in 1964. They were cast in the "Fonderia d'arte Cav. Renzo Michelucci" foundry in Pistoia, while a local highly reputed enterprise run by Fernando Tenerelli made the steel frame. The doors arrived in town on 8 August 1964 and were stored inside the Cathedral for Pope Paul VI to see them and give his approval during a pastoral visit to Orvieto.

E, consapevole delle possibili obiezioni all'introduzione della nuova festa, il papa sottolineava anche l'opportunità di una memoria eucaristica annuale, più particolare e solenne, per confutare i movimenti ereticali e per porre riparo alla trascuratezza verso l'Eucaristia.
: emphasized Pope Urban IV in presenting the Transiturus de hoc mundo Papal Bull that established the Corpus Domini festivity on the Thursday eight days after Pentecost Sunday. Aware of the possible objections to the introduction of this new holiday, the Pope also intended to point out how appropriate a specific and solemn yearly Eucharistic commemoration would be, in order to stand against the heretical movements and remedy the indifference shown towards the Eucharist.

Historically speaking, this monastic compound dating back to the early Middle Ages (seventh-eighth centuries a.D.) belonged to the Order of Saint Benedict until 1221, when the Benedictines were sent away from Orvieto by Pope Honorius III for rebelling against the city's Bishop. After 1226, the Premostratensians, settled down in the compound; they were the followers of Norbert of Xanten, who later became the Archbishop of Magdeburgh and had founded the first community of the reformed Order of Benedictine discipline in 1121 in Prémontré, north-eastern France, from which the community had taken its name. The rule of the Premostratensias aimed at a life of poverty, prayer and announcement of the Gospel in the form of Canons Regular, in opposition to the laxity which characterized the self-indulgent clergy at the time. It was the Premostratensias that added a large refectory room, a cloister and a chapter house to the original structure, which already included the church, the dodecagonal tower and the monastery and gave the compound its current architectural structure, that is arranged around two different courtyards.

Sculture, medaglie, bassorilievi, dal "Lottatore" esposto a Londra in occasione delle Olimpiadi del 1948, al famoso calco in gesso del monumento a Papa Giovanni XXIII, alle affascinanti e misteriose figure muliebri: opere donate dall'artista alla città di Orvieto, a cui era particolarmente legato per aver scolpito nel 1964 le nuove porte bronzee del Duomo.
From the heart of the Cathedral of Saint Mary of the Assumption, the visit to the MODO museum system goes back to the history of Orvieto and its Duomo through the valuable art collections that the Fabbriceria has been looking after for over eight centuries, with the goal to bring back to use the magnificent accessory works related to the Duomo that were created between the Middle Ages and the contemporary age, the latter represented by Emilio Greco's bronze doors. You can start by visiting any of the MODO's venues, where you can buy tickets for the whole route, but the recommended tour starts from Palazzo Soliano, where the main reception services are located as well as the Museo Emilio Greco modern art collection. Sculptures, medals, bas-reliefs, from the "Lottatore" (the wrestler), exhibited in London for the 1948 Olympics, to the famous plaster cast of the monument to Pope John XXIII, to the fascinating and mysterious female figures: these works were given by the artist to Orvieto, to which he felt particularly close since he had sculptured the new bronze doors for the Duomo in 1964. It is not unusual to have temporary modern art exhibitions or other cultural events organized under the management of AltroMODO, inside the Emilio Greco Museum.
  L'arte e l'architettura  
Si ristruttura il Palazzo Comunale e in mezzo alla piazza, al tempo denominata Piazza Maggiore, viene posta una fontana, oggi non più esistente, ad esaltare la conclusione dei lavori del pubblico acquedotto; al centro della città si costruisce il Palazzo del Popolo e viene destinata al mercato, allora come oggi, la grande piazza su cui si erge; si amplia il Palazzo Vescovile accanto alle chiese di Santa Maria Prisca e di San Costanzo, poi smantellate per dare slancio, nello stesso spazio, allo splendido fiore religioso del rinascere della città, il Duomo, la cui costruzione inizia nel 1290 e si protrae per oltre tre secoli; contemporaneamente, per volere di papa Bonifacio VIII, si costruisce il Palazzo Soliano.
The urban renovation, very simply, did take into account the different powers. The town hall was renovated and a fountain (which no longer exists) was placed in the centre of the square, once named Piazza Maggiore, in order to celebrate the completion of the public aqueduct; the Palazzo del Popolo was built in the town centre, and the wide square on which it is located was destined to accommodate the market, as it still does; the Bishop Palace was enlarged next to the Churches of Santa Maria Prisca and San Costanzo, which were dismantled at a later stage to allow the flowering of the the Duomo, the religious wonder that marked the rebirth of the town, the construction of which dates back to 1290 and embraced over three centuries; at the same time, desired by Pope Bonifacio VIII, Palazzo Soliano was built. The three faces of power, embodied in the figures of the Podestà, the Capitano del Popolo and the bishops or even the Pope, when he resided here, are completed by the symbolic-architectural representation of the economic power of the Arts, with the construction of the Palazzo dei Signori Sette (The Palace of the Seven Gentlemen), which was meant to accommodate the gentlemen's offices.
