Marcianise

Marcianise spreads across 30.78 square kilometers of land in the Campania region, maintaining a population of over 40,000 residents at 33 meters above sea level.

The settlement traces its origins to the 6th century when Ostrogoths established a presence in the area following their defeat in the Gothic War.

The Cathedral of Saint Michael Archangel holds religious significance for the local population, with celebrations of their patron saint taking place annually on May 8.

The railway station connects directly to major routes between Caserta, Aversa, and Naples, providing essential transportation links for residents and visitors.

The town survived a severe cholera outbreak in 1706, with locals attributing their preservation to the protective powers of the Holy Crucifix housed in their cathedral.
