The Roman Baths of Ankara Open Air Museum - Museum Visitors e02
The Roman Baths of Ankara are the ruined remains of an ancient Roman bath complex in Ankara Turkey, which were uncovered by excavations carried out in 1937-1944, and have subsequently been opened to the public as an open-air museum.
The baths are located on a plateau, traditionally known as Çankırı Kapı, which rises 2.5 meters above the west side of Çankırı Street, about 400 meters from the centre of the old Ankara district of Ulus, and has been identified as a höyük (tumulus), with Roman, mixed with Byzantine and Seljuk, material at the top and Phrygian settlement material at the base.
The ancient city of Ancyra stood at the crossroads between the East and West and during the Roman period, the city's strategic location led to its rise to prominence as the capital of the province of Galatia. To the east of this plateau ran a roadway from the city's sacred precinct, the area of the Temple of Augustus, a section of which, flanked by second or third century grey-veined marble columns with Corinthian capitals, was uncovered during the construction of Çankırı Street, during the development of Ankara into the new Turkish capital in the 1930s.
The baths were constructed in the third century by the Roman Emperor Caracalla (212-217), who also constructed the Baths of Caracalla in Rome, in honour of Asclepios, the God of Medicine, and built around three principal rooms: the caldarium (hot bath), the tepidarium (warm bath) and the frigidarium (cold bath) in a typically laid-out 80m x 120m classical complex. The baths were in use up until the eighth century when they were destroyed by fire leaving only the ruins of the basement and first floor.
The adjacent höyük (tumulus) was excavated by Prof. Dr. Remzi Oğuz Arık in 1937 revealing the Phrygian and Roman remains. General Director of Museums Hamit Z. Koşay and field director Necati Dolunay administered further excavations, funded by the Türk Tarih Kurumnu (Turkish Historical Society), which revealed the bath buildings in 1938-1939 and fully exposed them in 1940-1943. Excavation's architect Mahmut Akok investigated and drew a reconstructed plan of the baths before their restoration was begun.
Prof. Dr. Arık was able to date construction of the baths to the reign Caracalla by coins found during the excavations supported by contemporary inscriptions, whilst further coins indicated the baths were in continuous use for about 500 years, undergoing repair from time to time.

Roman Bath - Ankara
The Roman Bath, approximately 400 meters far from Ulus, was built by the Roman Emperor Caracalla, the son of Septimius Severus in the 3rd century to the honor of the God of Health, Asklepion.
It has been established that this platform, which is callled the Roman Bath today, was a tumulus and carried the remains of Roman times (partially Byzantine and Seljuk layers) on the top, and of Phrygian times at the bottom.
The Frigidarium (cool room) is just behind the sporting area, and Piscina (swimming pool) with stairs to sit on at the sides and an Apoditarium (place to take off the clothes) are on the left, and the cooling room with column pieces made of round bricks is on the right. The bath rooms had once been on these columns. The hot and warm rooms are wider divisions because of Ankara's very cold winter conditions. These rooms were supported with under-ground warming installations having brick columns around them to let the air to circulate easily, the upper rooms were warmed in this way.
During the excavations of the Turkish History Institution the dressing and bathing parts of the bath, stokeholes and service paths were discovered.

Another part is Peace Park, a large green area bursting with plant-life. There’s even a Turkish flag made entirely out of flowers! Other parts include Ceremonial Plaza and the Hall of Honor where the tomb of Ataturk, the first president, can be found.
