Thermes de Chassenon, Roman thermal baths in Chassenon, France.
The thermal complex extends over 1.5 hectares with dual levels, featuring multiple chambers for bathing, exercise, and social gatherings within stone walls.
Construction of these baths started around 90 AD and continued until 180 AD, serving as part of the ancient city of Cassinomagus along the Agrippan Way.
The thermal baths functioned as a central gathering point for Romans, combining physical activities, social interactions, and health practices in specialized chambers.
Visitors can explore the archaeological site from March to November through guided tours that explain the Roman bathing traditions and architectural features.
The thermal complex was constructed using impactite, a metamorphic rock created by a meteorite impact 200 million years ago.
