Volterra: From the Etruscans to the Middle Ages

Volterra: From the Etruscans to the Middle Ages
[…] Volterra shows itself with an arcane charm that emanates from the leaning houses, from the severed towers, from the streets crossed by disturbing shadows, paved in time of sweat and absurdity that cross history and legend digging endless grooves in the mind of men. (Franco Porretti)

Marvel at the impressive Duomo with its dome designed by Brunelleschi, a masterpiece of engineering and beauty.
