The Ludus Magnus was the main headquarters and the gym of the gladiators in Rome, located near the Colosseum, in the valley between the Esquilino and the Celio.

The Ludus Magnus was essentially a gladiatorial arena where gladiators from across the Roman Empire would live, eat, and practice while undergoing gladiatorial training in preparation for fighting at the gladiatorial games held at the Colosseum.
