Science Fair Project Encyclopedia Baths of Caracalla The Baths
of Caracalla were Roman public baths, or thermae, built in Rome
between 212 and 216 CE, during the reign of the Emperor
Caracalla. The extensive ruins of the baths have become a
popular tourist attraction. The Caracalla bath complex of
buildings was more a leisure centre than just a series of baths.
The "baths" were the second to have a public library within the
complex. Like other public libraries in Rome, there were two
separate and equal sized rooms or buildings; one for Greek
language texts and one for Latin language texts. - Baths of
