Description

This historic restoration is based on what the Roman Baths of Weißenburg would have looked like in their final phase of functionality. Smoke rises where slaves fanned the fires from small pits in front of the air shafts, using wood and charcoal, and the hot air escaped into the two lukewarm baths. The baths were heated day and night, as it would have taken several days to reheat a bath once it had cooled down.
