Teano, Ancient Roman settlement in Province of Caserta, Italy

The town extends across 89 square kilometers at the southeastern foot of the extinct Rocca Monfina volcano at 196 meters elevation.

In 334 BC, the Oscan tribe of Sidicini established their capital Teanum Sidicinum here, later submitting to Roman rule and maintaining coinage rights.

Saint Clement Cathedral, constructed between 1050 and 1116, incorporates Corinthian columns from earlier structures and displays a 14th-century religious crucifix.

The municipality connects to major transport routes through the A1 Milan-Naples highway, SS7 Via Appia, and maintains a railway station for regional access.

On October 26, 1860, this location witnessed the meeting between Giuseppe Garibaldi and King Victor Emanuel II during Italy's unification process.
