Orvieto. Medieval city centre | Italy #2
A visit to Orvieto in Umbria, Italy. The old city rises dramatically above the neighbouring countryside as it is situated on a nearly-flat hill of volcanic tuff. There was a settlement on this well defensible position since at least Etruscan times. The current city centre is mostly medieval. The top sights include the gothic Duomo with its remarkable 14th-century facade and the 11th century-built church of San Giovenale with its magnificent 12th and 13th-century frescoes. The city can easily be reached from the mainline railway station by using the funicular railway.

Fougères. Medieval town and castle | France #6
zhlédnutí 4,8KPřed 6 lety
My journey through northeastern Britanny ends with a visit to Fougères. This medieval gem turned out to be my favourite destination in this series. Fougères grew around the castle, which is - rather oddly - situated in a valley between two hills. The walled town was later expanded onto the hill. The most stunning sight in Fougères is the massive castle, closely followed by the timber-framed hou...
Saint-Malo - Intra-Muros. Historic town centre | France #5
zhlédnutí 1,4KPřed 6 lety
A visit to the inner town of the port town Saint-Malo, Brittany, France. The inner city is circled by walls. The heavily fortified town was once notorious for its independence from outside rule, making it a home for privateers, corsairs and pirates. The town was heavily bombarded during WW II but was restored in the years after. Nowadays, Saint-Malo is an interesting tourist destination. The to...
Dol-de-Bretagne. Historic city centre | France #4
zhlédnutí 6KPřed 6 lety
A visit to Dol-de-Bretagne in the French region of Brittany. Dol's history started with the founding of a Christian monastery in the 6th century by the monk Samson (later revered as saint). The Breton Nominoë declared himself king of Brittany here in the 9th century and turned the city into the region's religious centre. Traces of the old days remain. Dol's historic sights include the cathedral...
The Mont Saint-Michel | France #3
zhlédnutí 1,2KPřed 6 lety
A visit to one of France's most visited patrimonial sites: the Mont St Michel in Normandy. The rocky tidal island, about 1km from the shore, has held a strategic position since ancient times. A large medieval monastery (from which the island draws its name) is built on the crest of the rock.
Vitré in Brittany. Medieval town centre | France #2
zhlédnutí 6KPřed 6 lety
A visit to Vitré in Brittany, France. Vitré is a medieval walled town with many historic monuments. Large sections of the 13th-century ramparts remain, especially on the north side of the town. There is also a medieval faubourg (suburb) on the north side of town. Vitré was heavily fortified during the Middle Ages, as it was situated on the border between the Duchy of Britanny and the Kingdom of...
Rennes. Historic city centre | France #1
zhlédnutí 5KPřed 6 lety
A visit to Rennes, the historic capital of Britanny. The city has a long history going back to Gallic and Roman times. It was one of the major cities of the independent Duchy of Brittany. This duchy eventually became part of the Kingdom of France in 1547 after centuries of struggles. Because of its strategic importance, Rennes was heavily fortified during the Middle Ages. Some traces of Rennes'...
Romantic Rhine: Bacharach | Germany #12

A visit to Bacharach. One of the many gems along the Middle Rhine, also known as the 'Romantic Rhine'. Bacharach is a small town with a well preserved medieval centre. Sights include the timber-framed 'Altes Haus', built in the second half of the 14th century, and the castle Stahleck. Tip: walk the circular tour along the town walls, this path leads you to the castle and provides fine views ove...

We leave the Rhine and make our way into the valley of the river Lahn. The valley of the meandering Lahn is very picturesque, and there are many sites worth a visit on the way.

The most famous branch of the Nassau family is the house O...

Our next stop along the Middle Rhine is Braubach. Braubach is a pleasant small town with many half-timbered houses and other relics of the past. Its main attraction is Marksburg castle. This twelfth-century castle is the only medieval castle along this stretch of the Rhine that was never destroyed. The castle also offers fine views of the Rhine valley.

      That's plenty to be seen in Orvieto, worthwhile to go and pay at least a two days visit to it! The Duomo, various museums (Faina, Opera del Duomo, Emilio Greco, Archeological), two wells (St. Patricks and Of the Cave), few stunning churches, Torre del Moro, Theatre Mancinelli, two Etruscan's archeological sites (Del Belvedere and Crocefisso di Tufo Necropholis) are enough? ;-)
