Two thousand years of spa tradition
Built around 180 AD under the name Aquae Calidae ("the hot waters"), the Roman Baths of Amélie-les-Bains still have a 2nd-century vault in remarkable condition, listed as a historic monument since 1905. A contemporary spa establishment of more than 7,000 m² carries on this tradition today, specialising in rheumatology and respiratory conditions.
A climate to rival Rome
Classified as a climatic resort, Amélie-les-Bains enjoys sunshine comparable to Rome's — a dry microclimate particularly recommended for respiratory treatments, summer and winter alike.
In the heart of the Vallespir
Amélie-les-Bains-Palalda makes a good base for exploring the neighbouring Vallespir, between Céret and its cherry orchards and the Mondony gorges that run through the town — a stop that is both spa and nature.
