Caractère
Sulphate-rich alpine spring water noted since Roman antiquity

Histoire

The springs were described by Pliny the Elder and used through the Roman period; the present bath buildings are largely eighteenth- and nineteenth-century, restored as a spa in the 2000s.

Informations pratiques

Entry is timed and capacity-limited, so book ahead, especially in ski season. The circuit is a route through many small baths rather than one pool.
