ARCHAEOLOGICAL GARDEN OF THE AMPHITHEATRE BATHS

Description

The area between the rampart and the amphitheatre was occupied in Antiquity by a vast public building, which could have been a thermal complex if we consider the remains discovered in the 19th century under the neighbouring orchards. Excavations carried out between 2010 and 2016 uncovered a gallery leading to these buildings. This gallery, 6 m wide and over 40 m long, was distinguished by the richness of its decoration, given the large number of marble fragments and painted plaster found. The square in front of the portico was crossed by an underground pipe that probably connected the spring beneath the church with the thermal baths it fed. A selection of the objects unearthed during these excavations is on display in the Mosaic Museum.
