Chassenon Baths

The Chassenon Baths, formerly known as the "Longeas Baths," in Chassenon (within the Charente department) along the Via Agrippa, are among the best‑preserved bath complexes of the Gallo‑Roman world. They form part of the ancient city of Cassinomagus, integrated into a monumental complex that includes a vast sanctuary with the baths, a theater, and a temple. These are double Roman baths, serving both hygienic and therapeutic purposes, constructed over two levels and covering about 1.5 hectares (3.7 acres).
