One characteristic is the setting. They are usually set in a specific historical period, like the Victorian era or the Middle Ages. This gives a unique backdrop for the mystery. For example, in 'The Name of the Rose', the medieval monastery setting affects everything from the characters' beliefs to the methods of investigation. Another is that the detective often has to deal with the social norms and limitations of that historical time. In 'The Alienist', the detective in 1896 New York has to work within the constraints of the technology and social attitudes of that era.
