🌙 A Roman building designed for dreaming?

One of the greatest mysteries at The Roman Baths isn't what archaeologists have discovered.

It's what they still don't know.

The mysterious Facade of the Four Seasons was decorated with carvings of the seasons and an image of the goddess Luna.

Experts believe it may have been a place where worshippers spent the night beside the Temple of Sulis Minerva.

Why?

Perhaps in the hope of receiving messages from the gods through their dreams.

Imagine travelling across Roman Britain, sleeping beside a sacred spring and waiting for divine guidance by morning.

Some stories from The Roman Baths sound more like myth than history.

🏛️ Explore an award-winning museum filled with remarkable discoveries, enduring mysteries and stories spanning thousands of years.

👉 Book your visit and discover why so many visitors say The Roman Baths is much more than they expected.
