Church of Saint Augustin

Italy / Umbria / Orvieto /
 church, minster (church), Roman Catholic church

The Church currently hosts the mannerist complex of the statues of the Apostols and Patron Saints, and the splendid group of the Annunciation by Francesco Mochi. These statues, originally placed in the tribuna and the central nave of the Cathedral, from which they were removed during the purist rigorism of the nineteenth century, were left in the MODO storage rooms for many years but are now back on display in all their splendour promoting the rediscovery of stored materials and new subjects of study. www.inorvieto.it/en/visit/must_to_see/the_museum_of_orv...
