The Santa Maria C.V. Language Centre is located in an 18th century building in the centre of the city of Santa Maria Capua Vetere, in the southern region of Campania.

Approximately 20 kilometres north of Naples, it was known as Capua in Ancient Roman times, the city that dared challenge the supremacy of Rome itself, by allying with Hannibal in his attempt in the second Punic War.
