Summary/Abstract: The article is dedicated to the architectural works in Viterbo commissioned by the pope Pius II (1458–1464) to prepare the city for the solemnity of Corpus Christi (June 17th 1462). These works will be presented in the context of relations between popes and the capital of Tuscia in the 1450s and 1460s. The aim of the paper is to present their symbolic dimension which was used by the Pope to manifest his domination over Viterbo.
