BESENVAL JEAN

Such a lovely spot to wander around & for free. Unrivalled views of the Port & was actually not very busy (Monday PM trip)

This fort adjoining the Mucem has been redeveloped into gardens and art displays. A walk along the ramparts provides wonderful views of the city and harbor. The multi floor museum itself presents items and histories of Mediterranean cultures. Beyond Europe it particularly emphasizes Egypt and Tunisia. The supplemental exhibits focusing on similarities among cultures, in astrology or pottery for example, present insightful comparisons and fascinating example objects. The museum will probably never run out of topics for comparative exhibits (cooking, gardening, print making, etc), so living nearby and being able to see them all is enviable. The museum's ground and top floors both feature cafes, and there is an entertaining gift shop at bottom.

Free entry to a ruin fortress. You can cross the bridges to go via city centre and the musuems. Free public toulet here as well. Can chill here and enjoy the view.

Oooh how I loved that place! Really nice views, it’s free and also they have the cleanest toilets I’ve ever seen!😀 don’t thank me. It’s like the only toilet in Marseille that you can use during their lockdowns etc 🤣

Amazing views of the harbour, it's completely free to visit and it leads you over to the Musium.

Must see area. Spend 30 mins to have a beautiful walk along will make you feel blessed

Great walk around fortress and views of the sea. Come up to the new museum building that’s really cool. Can get down on the rocks and dip your feet in the water.

Amazing views and very peaceful. Take some time to slow down from life and walk this entire area.
