The Baths are situated just off the Plaza de Santiago in the old Moorish quarter of Marzuela in the town of Baza. Built in the 13thC and 14C these Baths were discovered at the end of the 19thC by the historian Gómez Moreno. In recent years the building has undergone a program of painstaking restoration and the whole edifice is protected by a concrete shell.
The Baños Árabes were finally opened to the public in July 2009.
