Terme Del C. This used to be a big Spa. Started in the beginning of the 20th century. Also during the second world war the activity continued. In the middle of the 20th century it was destroyed by a big fire and was rebuild again. When it was left abandoned i do not know. But since the 21th century it's owned by a investor which was planning to build appartments on the grounds. Due to the fact that it is a monument now, the place still exists. Visited this location during our Italy trip in May 2013
