It is located on the Theotokopoulou Street in the Upper Old City of Thessaloniki.The baths date to the late 13th/early 14th century and functioned continuously until 1940. The original architecture follows the typical conventions of Roman baths with a frigidarium tepidarium and caldarium each with two rooms.
