A chance to experience the Terme di Caracalla (The Baths of Caracalla) - at their peak the second busiest public baths in Rome. Thanks to restoration work throughout the 19th and 20th centuries they now offer a fascinating glimpse into the bathing culture of the Romans.
The thermae (public baths) were completed in around 211 AD by the Emperor Caracalla and used by thousands of bathers a day until they fell into disuse during the 6th century Gothic wars. The baths covered 25 hectares and offered a variety of diversions including hot and cold baths, saunas, gyms and even reading areas and places to walk. Although many splendid artworks were looted to decorate palaces and galleries the Baths are still noted for their mosaics and insights into Roman culture.
Opening hours:
The Terme are open from 9 AM until 6 PM but you must enter at the time specified on your ticket.
Please be sure to collect your ticket 20 to 30 minutes before your visit.
