The baths at Szechenyi have 12 thermal baths and 3 swimming pools. Some of the baths have water temperatures of up to 38 C (100F). When you check in you get a little changing booth to keep your stuff in. I rented a bathing suit. There are baths outside and inside. One of them has a whirlpool that spins you around with underwater jets. There are also a variety of saunas and massage options, but we just did the baths. The outside ones were our favorite!

The "thermae" were the city's public baths. There were relatively few private baths and these were limited to the most well-to-do families, given that the latter were the only ones who could afford to build rooms suited to the purpose.
The thermal bath buildings were divided into two sections: one reserved for women and one reserved for men. Each of these contained a series of rooms with different functions:
1) apodyterium or changing room
2) frigidarium or cold bath room
3) tepidarium or tepid bath room
4) calidarium or hot bath room.
The system of heating the rooms - which was fairly ingenious -worked by running heated water through the cavities in the wall.

Two years in construction, Nechells Baths were opened in 1910. In 1995 the baths closed as it could no longer compete with the more modern facilities the city had to offer and started to fall into disrepair. In 2002 work began to convert the Grade II listed building into a community facility retaining all the ornate ironwork and period features.

The ancient settlement developed around several mineral-rich springs (rising at 46ºC), which the Celts believed to have healing powers. These were dedicated to Sulis, the Celtic goddess of healing and sacred waters.
When the Romans arrived, soon after their invasion in 43 AD, they built a great temple beside the Sacred Spring, dedicated to Sulis Minerva, a deity, a hybrid of Sulis and Minerva, the Roman goddess of wisdom.
The Romans built grand bathing complexes around the hot springs, including the Great Bath, and came here to relax and take advantage of their reputed healing powers.
From the 18th century onwards the Roman baths were gradually rediscovered and became one of the city's main attractions.
