C.17th engraving of the ancient Baths of Caracalla by Marco Sadeler. The Baths of Caracalla (Terme di Caracalla) in Rome, were the city’s second largest Roman public baths, or thermae, likely built between AD 212 (or 211) and 216/217, during the reigns of emperors Septimius Severus and Caracalla. They were in operation until the 530s and then fell into disuse and ruin.
