Roman Baths in Fortuna

roman_spaA fascinating site comprising Roman Baths and the so-called Cueva Negra or Black Cave. The balnearium features a pool carved out of rock, which is believed to be one of the largest from the Roman period, and a temple dedicated to the healing divinities. For lovers of ancient history, the walls of the legendary Black Cave boast a series of Latin inscriptions that point to the existence of a cult worshipping nymphs, Venus and Bacchus during Roman times.
