Castel Giorgio situato sulla sommità di un altopiano, si erge sopra il vicino Lago di Bolsena. I primi insediamenti della zona risalgono al VI secolo a.C. e successivamente queste terre furono terra di passaggio per i romani che risiedevano in Orvieto. Come per tutti i comuni del comprensorio orvietano, il periodo di massima crescita fu proprio il Medioevo: è infatti in questo periodo che il Vescovo di Orvieto, Giorgio Della Rovere, fece costruire un castello che porta ora il suo nome. E’ proprio il castello suddetto, la principale meta turistica di Castel Giorgio. Costruito nel 1478, fu in seguito distrutto durante le lotte tra i Della Rovere ed i Valenti. Fu poi ristrutturato ed adibito a sede vescovile.

Nel sottosuolo di un’ampia parte del territorio comunale è riscontrabile un notevole dinamismo endogeno, di natura vulcanica che si palesa con soffioni in superficie (es. località Monte Landra). Tra i numerosi siti archeologici dell’orvietano sono da segnalare la vasta necropoli etrusca del Lauscello (III-II secolo a.C.) nel territorio del location di Castel Giorgio e la necropoli di Casa Perrazza.

Comme pour toutes les communes de la région d’Orvieto, la période de croissance maximale fût justement le Moyen-Âge: c’est en effet au cours de cette période que l’Evêque d’Orvieto, Giorgio Della Rovere, fît construire un château qui porte aujourd’hui son nom. C’est justement le château en question qui constitue la principale destination touristique de Castel Giorgio. Construit en 1478, il fût ensuite détruit pendant les luttes entre les Della Rovere et les Valenti. Il fût ensuite reconstruit et consacré au siège du vescovat.
