The small, 25 meters long and nine meters wide Kastellbad ( Balineum ) - also excavated in 1898 [14] - was located about 100 meters from the southwest gate at the there precipitating Roman road . The plant with its 0.90 meter thick outer walls, [15] was one of the Limes widespread so-called row type . That is, all rooms necessary for the specified bathing process with cold bath ( Frigidarium ) , sweat bath (Sudatorium) , Laubad ( Tepidarium ) and hot bath (Caldarium)were arranged in a building escape in a row. The bath was excavated by the Reichs-Limeskommission. It turned out that the small semicircular apse, which was built to the southeast of the bath, was not in a joint with the actual building and at the same time had been erected somewhat shifted from the axis of the adjoining room. The excavators concluded to consider this finding as a later cultivation. Although the floor had completely disappeared from this apse, but there was a water basin in comparable Bädersituation. This was in Böhming slightly higher than the other rooms of the bath. All hypocaustedRooms had broken in the middle. Therefore, only the pillars along the walls were found intact. Since the floor slabs abut directly against the walls of the bath above the pillars at these peripheral points, it could be concluded that this system can not have any walls that can be heated by hollow bricks. The boiler room (Praefurnium) for the hot bath was outside the actual bath on the narrow side. The pillars of the Caldariumconsisted of 1.10 meters high square bricks. For each pillar, 20 bricks had been installed. Above this was a layer of square foot plates up to 0.24 meters long, and a final layer of up to 0.45 meter long cover plates. The overlying waterproof screed had a thickness of 0.20 meters. Between the boiler rooms of the Caldariumand Tepidarium there was a 0.40 meter high and 0.55 meter wide, arched opening through which hot air could boast. The 0.95 meter high pillars of the Laubades consisted of ten to twelve layers of limestone slabs. The heatable spaces between Tepidarium and Frigidariumto which the Apsidiale cultivation belonged, have been structurally separated only over the actual Hypokaustum with a 0,50 meters strong wall. The entire heating area below consists of a single room with 0.60 meter high pillars, which are also bricked up of limestone. Between this area and the Laubad also the only surviving door passage could be proven. Since the RLK has not established a special Praefurnium for these rooms, their use in the total as a possible Schwitzbad (Sudatorium) is questionable. As the last of the CaldariumFrom heated rooms, the corresponding heat could never have been generated here, so it was considered to see a passageway in the larger of the rooms. Only in the small northwestern room, it should have been a sweat bath, which was additionally heated with a heating pool. Also, the way in which the smoke extraction in this bath without a deduction on the walls should take place, could not be clarified.
