The largest of the ancient Roman baths, now housing an extraordinary collection of inscriptions, stelae, and prehistoric Italian artifacts within the surviving brick halls and Michelangelo's cloister. The cloister garden filled with ancient sculpture fragments is one of Rome's most atmospheric spaces. The epigraphic collection is the finest in the world for Latin inscriptions. It rewards slow, curious visitors willing to read the stones.
