These 10th-century baths are virtually all that remain of the Arab city of Medina Mayurqa (now known as Palma). The Arab Baths date back to a period between the 10th and 12th centuries, and were built based on antique elements and by recycling capitals from previous periods (Muslim, Byzantine and Roman capitals). The Arab Baths are perfectly integrated in the gardens of the former orchard of the manor house Can Fontirroig.
They were probably part of a nobleman's house and are similar to those found in other Islamic cities. The tepidarium has a dome in the shape of a half orange, with 25 round shafts for sun light, supported by a dozen columns.
Notice how each of the columns is different - they were probably salvaged from the ruins of various Roman buildings, an early example of recycling. Hammams were meeting-places as well as wash-houses, and the courtyard with its cactus, palm and orange trees would have made a pleasant place to cool off after a hot bath.

Situated in the narrow streets of the medieval quarter of the city is the only remaining Moorish-built building in Palma.
Still intact, the Arab bathhouse one of the few buildings left from the occupation of the Moors. It is a haven of peace and quiet in the otherwise bustling city and definitely worth a visit.

Mallorca, Spain (2): Visiting the old Arab Baths in Palma
The Banys Àrabs (Arab Baths) from the 10th to 12th centuries are the last remaining monument of Moorish Mallorca. They are quite hard to find though and when we finally succeeded, we could no longer take a bath. The Baths, in fact, looked like they should take a bath. An idyllic place, nevertheless!

Ronda, Spain - Baños árabes de Ronda (old Arab Baths)
The partially intact Baños árabes (Arab baths) are found below the city of Ronda, Spain and date back to the 13th and 14th centuries. The old Puente Arabe (bridge) nearby may have been built around the same time.
At the time Ronda was under Moorish (Muslim) rule and baths were an important spiritual ritual for them. A clean body was necessary to enter a mosque and there was a mosque originally near the baths location.
Fascinating history to experience up close, there was even a small public video room to watch a presentation. For more information on baths of this type, check out this link:
