Terme della Rotonda, Roman thermal baths and archaeological park in Catania, Italy.

The ancient thermal complex contains nine distinct rooms with visible remnants of the original heating systems and bathing facilities from Roman times.

Construction of these public baths began between the 1st and 2nd century CE, with subsequent expansions during the 3rd century CE.

The site transformed into a Byzantine church named Santa Maria della Rotonda, featuring medieval and baroque frescoes on its interior walls.

Located near the Roman theatre and Odeon, this archaeological site receives visitors without charging admission fees throughout the year.

The grounds functioned as a cemetery from the 9th to 16th century, with numerous tombs still visible among the ancient bath structures.
