Bath entdecken

The Roman Baths are the remains of a bathing complex and temple that the Romans built around Bath's hot spring from about 60–70 AD, in the town they called Aquae Sulis. Visitors walk past the Sacred Spring, the Great Bath, the temple precinct and a museum of finds; the buildings at street level date from the 19th century.

The Holburne Museum occupies the former Sydney Hotel, built from 1796 to designs by Charles Harcourt Masters at the end of Great Pulteney Street in Bath. Since 1916 it has shown the collection of Sir William Holburne: paintings by Gainsborough, Stubbs and Zoffany, silver, porcelain and miniatures. An extension by Eric Parry opened in 2011.
