Terme Della Lanterna

Located on the east-west internal mole delineating the Claudian basin and the entrance canal to the Trajanic basin, the bath complex (c. 40 m by 30 m) was comprised of multiple vaulted rooms of brick-faced concrete construction. The first-century structure was initially excavated in 1824 when the marble cladding was removed. More recent systematic excavation has been undertaken by L. Paroli and R. Sebastiani on behalf of the Soprintendenza Speciale per i Beni Archeologici di Roma.
