Have fun at museums
Inside and outside: with the museums of Marseille, cultivate your freedom of thought and discovery
We have selected some of the museums in Marseille.
To all lord, all honor: the mucem
Le Museum of European and Mediterranean Civilizations is above all a cultural city. No need to list the exhibitions. They are all fascinating. The idea is rather to live the experience Mucem.
Take the Quai du Port, then walk alongside Fort Saint-Jean for a walk along the water's edge. Savor the exhibition of your choice. Enjoy the view from the top floor of the Museum, and continue along the footbridge which overlooks the sea. It leads you into a maze of gardens decorated with deckchairs which invite you to take a nap in the sun.
