Teano. Church of San Michele Arcangelo

The Avalos castle of Vairano Patenora is a square-shaped building with stone perimeter walls and four cylindrical corner towers. it was built by Ripandulf VI in the 11th century.

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.

Borgonuovo di Teano, Campania. Sanctuary of Maria Santissima della Libera

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 building of S. Paride is a church with a basilica structure with three naves, and termination with a semicircular apse. The facade, where it is possible to admire the building technique in tuff blocks arranged in regular rows, is characterized by the presence of two semi-columns in tuff on the sides of the portal, and a third in the right corner. The half-columns each rest on a pilaster, also in tuff. A fourth semi-column must have been present near the left corner, where there is still a Tuscan base still in tuff. These still retain the Corinthian capitals of reuse, also in local tuff. The entrance is rather simple, with a molded secmicircular frame supported by two shelves with inlaid motifs in plants. The marble frame still preserves the kyma lesbio decoration, followed by a curb with parallel lines and a second frame with denticles. The frame overlooks a lunette where traces of a fresco can no longer be read. The whole is surmounted by two mullioned windows. Internally, the naves are divided into six bays and separated by arches supported on each side by five quadrangular pillars. The light comes from the mullioned windows placed on the perimeter walls. A large opening, now flanked, also with a round arch, is visible along the left perimeter. The only piece of furniture is the so-called chair of S. Paride, made up of a reddish tuff block. The interior is rather simple, and still has a small crypt with burials in the crate.
