Allies bombed Orvieto and near places especially in 1944. The railway station in Orvieto scalo was completely destroyed. Other obiectives near Orvieto were the Allerona bridge and the iron bridge over the Tevere, the one near Guardea, Alviano and Castiglione in Teverina. I know very well that zone, famous for the wine and a fantastic countryside environment. Do you know Guardea Victor?
