The Roman-Gaul Baths of Entrammes (Thermes gallo-romains d'Entrammes in French) is a complex of Gallo-Roman thermal baths (thermae) in Entrammes, Mayenne, France. The baths were partially incorporated into a church with the hypocaust surviving below the new structure. The remains were discovered in 1987.

History

The thermal site was discovered in 1987. Archaeological surveys were done to reassess the church of Saint-Étienne, a building which dates back to Roman times. A hypocaust in good condition was found below the church, confirming the presence of a thermal site of the 2nd century.^[1]

Access and conservation

Since 1 September 1988 the baths have been classified as a historical monument by the Ministry of Culture.^[2] Tours are organised by the local tourism office.^[3]
