A few rooms of baths belonging to a villa were excavated in 1912 in Gretzenbach (to the east of Olten), next to the cemetery of the church of Peter and Paul. The remains can still be seen. A heated room with a hypocaust and a cold room with an apse were found. Of the decoration fragments of paintings and mosaics remained.
