At the centre of the opposite side, along the rectangular boundary that delimited the complex, there was a vast exedra, built over in the late 19th century by what is now the Piazza della Repubblica. To the sides of the exedra were two libraries, followed by two circular chambers, one of which was transformed in 1598 into the Church of San Bernardo. The other is still visible at the start of the Via del Viminale. Beyond the entrance, reached through a stately garden, was the central building with the bathing halls. Nothing remains of the caldarium except for a small apse that forms the fa\u00e7ade of Santa Maria degli Angeli, while the frigidarium, the imposing hall with its triple-cross vault, and the circular tepidarium can still be seen in the transept and vestibule respectively of the great Basilica. To the sides of the central building, colonnaded gymnasiums were arranged symmetrically, along with a series of numerous other majestic interconnected halls, referred to as the Grandi Aule (Great Halls).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The area occupied by the Baths of Diocletian is between the Piazza dei Cinquecento, opposite Termini Station, Piazza della Repubblica,&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":714,"parent":3701,"menu_order":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-3703","sede","type-sede","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/museonazionaleromano.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sede\/3703","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/museonazionaleromano.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sede"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/museonazionaleromano.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/sede"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/museonazionaleromano.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sede\/3701"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/museonazionaleromano.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/714"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/museonazionaleromano.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3703"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
