In Villigen, some 10 kilometers to the north of Brugg, bathing rooms of a villa were found in 1958 at the locality Schürmatt. The excavators identified a caldarium (1), a tepidarium (2), a heated apodyterium (3), and a frigidarium (4) with a basin (5). Room 6 may have been a porticus. The remainder of the building must have been to the west. The building was erected in the first half of the first century and used until the early third century.
