Roman Baths (Termas Romanas)

About Roman Baths (Termas Romanas)

The Roman Baths, strategically located near the Roman Bridge on the banks of the River Miño, attest to the importance of public bathing in Lucus Augusti. Now integrated within the modern Hotel Balneario de Lugo, the most impressive surviving section is believed to be the apodyterium (changing room) with its distinctive opus signinum floor. Another room, likely a frigidarium (cold bath), was later converted into a Christian chapel. The continuity of a spa on this site creates a tangible link between ancient and contemporary wellness practices.
