Ruins of Roman baths. Quite interesting but it doesn’t take long to see. Entry fee applies.

Another beautiful piece of Roman architecture and our entry came as part of a multi pass tourist pass that we purchased for €15 which gives you access to 4 monuments and 2 museums. The thermal baths would have been quite impressive back in their day, but much of the structure has been lost. All of the information was in French and there were large areas lacking any information. We read a review saying there were great river views, but you need to exit and walk across the road to view the river. The view from the riverside is more intact. I wouldn't make a special trip or pay a standalone entry fee to visit.

The Thermes de Constantin is a wonderful example of Roman thermal baths, showcasing the grandeur of ancient architecture. While only a part remains, the size of the vaulted ceilings is impressive and offers insight into the scale of the original structure. Of particular interest is the alternating use of brick and cement in the construction of the walls and vaults, highlighting the craftsmanship of the era. However, one drawback is the lack of information on the purpose of each room or area within the baths, which could enhance the visitor experience. Overall, it's an interesting and educational visit for those interested in Roman history and architecture.
