Bath Bathe Baths Nimes Sacred Spring Springs


EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the historic Roman Baths of Nimes, France, as they appeared in 1904. Now a cherished part of the public gardens, these ancient baths were once a sacred site for the Romans, who filled the curving pools with clear water from the sacred spring. The image transports us back in time, as we can almost hear the gentle sound of water lapping against the stone walls and feel the cool, refreshing liquid against our skin. The Roman Baths of Nimes, located in the heart of the city, were built around 200 AD and were a popular gathering place for both men and women. The bathing complex included various pools for different temperatures and purposes, as well as a sauna and a cold plunge pool. The site was later abandoned during the Middle Ages and was rediscovered in the 17th century by King Louis XIV, who ordered the gardens to be laid out around the baths. Today, the Roman Baths are a popular tourist attraction and a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of Nimes. The sacred spring, which still fills the baths to the brim with clear water, continues to draw visitors from around the world who seek to experience a piece of history and connect with the past.
