Teano. Church of San Francesco.
Built in the fourteenth century, in Gothic style, by the Conventual Minors it was extensively remodeled in the Baroque age. The magnificent gilded wooden ceiling with one hundred finely carved coffers, with outlines decorated with wreaths of painted roses, for the splendor of the gilded mass wins the comparison with many other similar works. The panel in the center of the ceiling (St. Francis and the council), in which the popes Pius XII, John XXIII and Paul VI and the late bishop of Teano Mons. Sperandeo are depicted, is a modern work by Augusto De Rose. On the entrance door there is a large canvas of the Immaculate Conception by Girolamo Cenatiempo (first half of the 18th century).

Sessa Aurunca (CE), the Cathedral
Construction was begun by probable workers of the Casauriense school (see portico of the abbey of S. Clemente a Casauria built between 1176 and 1180) in 1113, partly reusing materials from ancient Roman buildings, and consecrated in 1183; the current external appearance was achieved in the first half of the thirteenth century with the addition of the portico and the large window placed in the upper part of the facade. The interior, on the other hand, having eliminated the trussed ceiling already in the thirteenth century, remained Romanesque until the mid-eighteenth century when the bishop Francesco Caracciolo d'Altamura decided to modernize it according to the tastes and style of the time, namely the Baroque. In July 1929, Pope Pius XI elevated it to the dignity of a minor basilica.
