The Baths of Caracalla, the second-largest thermal baths in ancient Rome, offer a stunning glimpse into the grandeur of Imperial architecture. Commissioned by Emperor Septimius Severus and completed by his son, Emperor Caracalla, around 216 AD, this monumental complex stands as a testament to Roman opulence and engineering. Located along the historic Appian Way, the baths also reflect the turbulent reign of Caracalla, notorious for his ruthless actions, including the murder of his brother to seize power.
