The cathedral, originally dedicated to San Terenziano, was later named after San Clemente. Construction began in 1050 by Bishop Guglielmo, to replace the old cathedral of San Paride ad Fontem, located outside the city walls. The works were completed in 1116 by Bishop Pandulfo. The building has a basilica structure divided into three naves by two rows of columns. In 1608 it was damaged internally by a fire that almost completely destroyed the cosmates ambo, subsequently recomposed using the remains of the previous one integrated with the marble slabs of a fourteenth-century sepulchral monument already present in the church and positioned on twisted columns, two of which rested on fountain lions. During the 16th century the Romanesque apse was modified and on that occasion a precious carved wooden choir was built in the presbytery, built in 1539 by the Benedictine Antonio Maria Sertorio. The choir underwent two restorations, the first in the 17th century and the second in 1957, following the damage suffered during the Second World War.

The church, dedicated to San Michele Arcangelo, stands in a medieval village of Lombard origin located on the top of a hill, at 401 meters on the slopes of the Tifatini Mountains. The town is a hilly hamlet located about 10 kilometers from the capital and is today called "Caserta vecchia" or Casertavecchia but in the Middle Ages simply "Caserta" (originally Casa Hirta) before the name passed to the center on the plain (previously called Torri, then Caserta new and finally Caserta). Casertavecchia was an important fortified center, the seat of a Lombard county, later Norman, and the seat of a diocese, after the destruction, in the early Middle Ages, of the ancient episcopal seat of Calatia (near the current Maddaloni).

Teano, the ancient Teanum Sidicinum, well known as the site of the historic meeting between Vittorio Emanuele II and Garibaldi in 1860, is located at the foot of the Roccamonfina volcanic group in the province of Caserta, has a rich monumental heritage, great environmental value and numerous ancients. Inhabited by the populations of the Aurunci and Sidicini, of Samnite origin and perhaps occasional cause of the outbreak of the first Samnite war in 343 BC, it has returned some of the first four documents in Italian vernacular, just after the middle of the tenth century, the "papers of Teano". The city was the birthplace of Antonello Petrucci one of the leaders of the so-called fifteenth-century Conjugation of the Barons and owner of a palace in Naples located in Piazza San Domenico Maggiore, next to the entrance to the church of the same name. The ancient Teanum occupied the place of the current city while the thermal baths and the amphitheater fell outside the walls, had an irregular perimeter and an area of about 7 and a half hectares.
