Rubricaire, Roman thermae ruins in Sainte-Gemmes-le-Robert, France

The Rubricaire archaeological site contains stone walls, thermal baths, and scattered dwellings spread across a former Roman waystation at the foot of Mont Rochard.

The Roman camp and baths received official monument status in 1917, following discoveries that connected the site to the Robrica station on the Tabula Peutingeriana map.

The thermal complex included separate sections for cold baths, saunas, and hot baths, demonstrating Roman bathing traditions in the Mayenne department.

The archaeological site stands 11 kilometers from Jublains, with excavated areas showing the remains of ancient brick borders and stone foundations.

Archaeological research revealed a hypocaust system beneath the thermal baths, indicating advanced Roman heating technology for maintaining water temperatures.
