Historic Roman Baths Overview

The Roman Baths is a well-maintained theme that was used for bathing by the Romans until the end of Roman rule in England. It is one of the historic Bath places to visit as these Baths were once the great religious spas of the ancient world along with Roman pavements and the remains Temple of Sulis Minerva. Roman Baths also arranges events and social gatherings for people of all ages.

The UNESCO World Heritage Site, Roman Baths is an award-winning museum that is the most-visited attraction among all the places to visit in Bath. The Baths were constructed as a site for public bathing and gathering for the Roman residents and were used until their rule ended in Britain during the 5th century. The site on which the Baths stand was then visited by the Romans to worship goddess Suli Minerva as they took a dip in the thermal springs.

Even today the baths overflow with hot water from thermal natural springs and hence are believed to have therapeutic and healing properties. Visitors are allowed to walk around the Baths but are not permitted to step into the holy waters. The Roman Baths has four main features – the Sacred Spring, Roman Temple, Roman Bath House and the museum which has Roman artefacts. The entrance has a Victorian Reception hall, a beautiful terrace overlooking the Great Bath and the Roman Town of Aquae Sulis.
