The Imperial Baths (Kaiserthermen) are a large Roman bath complex in the city of Trier. The facility was projected to become one of the grandest and most impressive baths in the Roman Empire. The construction started shortly before AD 300 and can be attributed to the emperor Constantius Chlorus (293-306), who moved his residence to Trier. In 316, work came to a sudden end and the baths were never finished. The emperors Gratian and Valentinian II used them as barracks for their life guards. The bath complex consists of two parts: the real baths (thermae) and the sports grounds located outside the enclosed buildings (palaestra). Today, the ruins of the bathing facility and the underground service tunnels can be visited.

The Imperial Baths in Sharon Springs are slowly being restored. This is the entrance to the Annex on Main Street.

The once luxurious Imperial Baths, built in 1927 in Sharon Springs, NY, where people "took the waters," waits in silence and slowly crumbles away as its ultimate fate is decided.

The Imperial Baths (Kaiserthermen) of Trier, Germany, were built by the Emperor Constantine in the 300s AD. The Roman public bath complex is the largest Roman baths outside Rome.

Built in 1927' the Imperial Baths were once bustling with seekers of the healing waters of Sharon Springs. Some have said that 5000 treatments were given daily, though this seems unlikely. In recent years, the town has struggled to regain its former stature. The current owners hope to restore the Imperial Baths and the Hotel Adler nearby.

Die südlich des Palastgarten gelegenen Ruinen der Kaiserthermen sind seit 1986 Teil des UNESCO-Welterbes Römische Baudenkmäler, Dom und Liebfrauenkirche in

Trier.

 

Der Bau der Thermen wurde in der 2. Hälfte des 4. Jh. unter Konstantin dem Großen begonnen. Sie gehörten zu den größten römischen Bäderanlagen nördlich der Alpen. In nachrömischer Zeit wurde das Bauwerk teilweise als Kastell, Kirche und Stadtbefestigung genutzt.

The ruins of the Kaiserthermen, located south of the palace garden, have been part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site since Roman monuments, the cathedral and the Church of Our Lady in Trier.

 

The construction of the thermal baths began in the second half of the 4th century AD under Constantine the Great. They belonged to the largest Roman baths north of the Alps. In post-Roman times, the building was partly used as a fort, church and city fortifications.
