Poggiodomo is a comune (municipality) in the Province of Perugia in the Italian region Umbria, located about 80 km southeast of Perugia.

== Etymology == According to the 19th-century account of Adone Palmieri, the settlement was formerly known as ''Poggio d'Oro ("Golden Hill"), a name he attributes to the presence of several wealthy families; he further suggests that the present name derives from a later linguistic corruption of that earlier form.
