Għajn Tuffieħa Roman Baths, Roman baths in Mġarr, Malta.
The ancient bath complex features multiple chambers including a tepidarium, frigidarium, caldarium, and a large swimming pool called natatio.
The thermal complex, discovered in 1929 during water works, dates from the late first to early second century AD when Malta was under Roman rule.
The rooms display intricate geometric mosaics created with colored marbles and stones, while corridors contain ceramic lozenge-shaped tiles measuring ten centimeters.
The site extends beneath modern roads and remains partially unexplored, with recent protective measures involving careful backfilling to preserve structures.
The baths include a communal latrine designed for twelve people and separate rooms that might have functioned as overnight accommodations for visitors.
