"Die Römischen Thermen Bad Vilbel wurden 1848/49 beim Bau der Main-Weser-Bahn nahe dem Bad Vilbeler Südbahnhof entdeckt. Von der Anlage ist heute oberirdisch nichts mehr sichtbar. Bekannt ist der Fundort vor allem wegen eines prächtigen römischen Mosaiks, das in einem der Räume gefunden wurde. Es handelt sich um den einzigen größeren Mosaikfund aus römischer Zeit in Hessen, weshalb es sich heute im Hessischen Landesmuseum Darmstadt befindet."
