The Roman Theater of Spoleto is one of the most important Roman monuments in the city and represents a significant testimony to the cultural life of ancient Spoletium. It was built in the 1st century BC, in an area near the forum, according to the architectural models of classical Roman theater. The cavea, built against the natural slope of Sant'Elia Hill, was divided into sectors and could accommodate several thousand spectators. Opposite were the orchestra and the monumental stage, originally decorated with columns, niches, and statues, which served as a backdrop for theatrical and musical performances. The building was constructed of masonry and clad in local stone, with technical solutions that ensured good acoustics. After the end of the Roman era, the theater was gradually abandoned and was partially incorporated into medieval buildings. The area was restored in the 20th century, restoring the structure's visibility and highlighting its archaeological importance. Today, the Roman Theatre is part of the National Archaeological Museum of Spoleto and continues to serve a cultural purpose, hosting events and performances that renew the city's connection to its thousand-year-old theatrical tradition.

The beating heart of the city, Piazza della Repubblica is today the meeting place of Orvieto's residents. Once the site of public events and papal ceremonies, it houses the Church of Sant'Andrea and the Town Hall.

The medieval quarter of Orvieto, located on the western slope of the cliff, represents the oldest and most original part of the city. Characterized by narrow streets, tuff houses, and picturesque views, it includes the historic Via della Cava, an ancient access route to the city, with the Porta Maggiore and the remains of Etruscan walls. Here are also the Pozzo della Cava, the small church of the Madonna della Cava, and two imposing "fortress-churches": San Giovenale and San Giovanni Evangelista, built in strategic positions to control the territory. Panoramic routes such as the one along Ripa Medici or between the two churches offer evocative views of the medieval urban settlement.

Piazza della Repubblica is one of Orvieto's most famous city squares. Located at the western end of Corso Cavour, the historic square is home to a number of beautiful buildings. Visitors can walk west from Piazza della Repubblica along Corso Cavour to the far side of town. (c) https://orvieto.ca/attractions/piazza-della-repubblica.html

The Society of the Good Death, founded in 1570 to provide a dignified burial for the destitute and bodies found on public roads, sponsored the construction of the church starting in 1575. The work, carried out by Bino Sozi to a design by Vincenzo Danti, lasted until after 1600. A restoration of the church of the Society of the Good Death was carried out in 2005.
