"My favourite museum 10/10. The Hot Springs were amazing. It's incredible thinking that 3000 years ago people were having baths there."

What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors find the Caesaraugusta Public Baths Museum fascinating, particularly the well-preserved Roman baths and the informative audiovisual presentation. The Ruta Caesaraugusta ticket is highly recommended for its value and comprehensive exploration of Roman history. However, some visitors have experienced frustration with unpredictable presentation schedules and the Spanish-only audio-visual content.
"Was unable to go as they had already closed the doors at 8pm although they should be open till 9 pm. Can buy one roman site ticket for 4€ or 4 roman sites (forum, port, thermal spa and theatre) for 7€"

"Worth to go through the Ruta Caesaraugusta visiting the four archeological museums: the Forum, the River Port, the Public Baths and the Theater.
Here you’ll find the swimming pool they built over the public baths, nice the audiovisual explanation, 15minutes, Spanish only."
Jefferson Andrade
"Interesting, although you don’t know when to show up. The door is closed and access is not granted while they have a “presentation” going on, which happens every 30 minutes. You simply don’t know how long the wait is for the next round. It could be 29 minutes or 2 minutes."
