Roman bath in Weißenburg in Bayern

The Roman bath in Weißenburg is an archaeological site displaying the preserved remains of an ancient bathing complex, now sheltered under a protective roof structure. You can see the foundations of pools, heating channels, and different rooms that reveal how the facility was laid out.

The bathing complex was discovered during excavations in 1977 and formed part of the Roman military camp Biriciana. The camp was established to guard and control the northern frontier of the Roman province of Raetia.

The baths served as a meeting place where soldiers and residents came together to bathe, exercise, and spend time socializing. You can still sense how central this building was to the social life of the Roman community.

The site is easily reached via a direct path and the protective roof means you can visit in any season without worrying about rain. The remains are straightforward to explore on your own, as the foundations and structures are clearly laid out.

In the information building, you can experience a three-dimensional reconstruction of the bathing complex as it stood around 150 AD, showing what the site looked like when it was in use. A film complements this by presenting other discoveries from Roman Weißenburg and conveying a sense of life at that time.
