Arab Baths of Girona, Medieval bathhouse in Old Town, Spain

The Arab Baths contain distinct sections including a changing area with barrel vaults, a central pool covered by a dome supported by ornate columns.

Dating from 1194, these public baths experienced partial destruction during the 1285 siege by French troops before King James II ordered their reconstruction in 1294.

The structure combines Romanesque architecture with elements of Roman bathing traditions, featuring frigidarium, tepidarium, and caldarium sections for different water temperatures.

Located at Ferran el Catòlic street, the baths welcome visitors Monday through Saturday from 10:00 to 18:00, with shorter hours on Sundays and holidays.

The central octagonal pool stands beneath an illuminated cupola supported by eight columns, each topped with different carved stone capitals depicting plant and animal motifs.
