Extremely ingenious Orvieto water supply well, built around 1500 for water independence in case of long sieges or famines.
It consists of two superimposed independent helical ramps, one-way, in the sense that those going up did not impede those going down. 54 m deep, 13 m wide.
Wonderful, a must-see. Entrance fee required.
