The ancient Roman baths

This beautiful archaeological site dates back to second half of the XNUMXnd century AD and consisted of multiple levels, although at the moment you can only see the remains of the ground floor. Some incomplete walls remain which give us an idea of ​​how it was once structured.

It was most likely fed by the waters of theSerino aqueduct which contributed to giving life to this located spa complex in the road between Neapolis and Pueoli.

Today it still retains the power system of the warm environments and can also be admired beautiful mosaics on the floors. There are marine figures, some even complete, really very interesting.

A beautiful place to visit, especially for those who have never seen it yet.
