On Piazza Duomo in Caserta, the small Church of San Giovanni Battista dated 1632, with a fine 17th-century marble altar.

In the heart of Caserta, overlooking Piazza Duomo, stands the small Church of San Giovanni Battista. The cultural heritage catalogue dates it to 1632 and attributes it to local craftsmen: an intimate building that began as a chapel and has been tied for centuries to the religious life of the town centre, a few steps from the cathedral.We love stepping into these tiny spaces, where time seems to slow down. Inside, a 17th-century marble altar stands out, a testament to the devotion and taste of the period. We recommend including the visit in a stroll through the streets of the centre, taking advantage of its closeness to the Duomo to discover a lesser-known corner of the town.
