Teano. The Cathedral. Chapel of San paride
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.

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.
