Thermes romains d'Aix-en-Provence
Thermes romains d'Aix-en-Provence, Roman thermal baths in Aix-en-Provence, France
The Roman thermal baths feature a vaulted pool with side benches, surrounded by ancient stone walls and archaeological remains from the imperial period.
Consul Caius Sextius Calvinius established these thermal baths in 123 BCE, utilizing natural hot springs sourced from 80 meters underground.
The thermal waters of Aquae Sextiae received documentation from classical historians including Strabo, Pliny, and Livy during the Roman period.
The site opens Monday through Friday from 8:30 AM to 8:30 PM, Saturdays from 9:30 AM to 7:30 PM, and holidays from 10:30 AM to 5:30 PM.
Archaeological excavations in 1704 revealed enigmatic stone inscriptions that confirmed the presence of an ancient public bathing establishment.
