We will begin our visit by entering the Baths of Caracalla. They were inaugurated in the year 216, during the reign of Marcus Aurelius Severus Antoninus, known in historiography as “Caracalla”, the name of a garment (cloak of Gallic origin) which he imposed in Rome as a fashion, making it compulsory for soldiers. These hot springs are the most sumptuous ever built, clad in fine marbles and adorned with a large number of works of art.
