The Granet museum is inside the old hôtel de l’Ordre de Malte in the old town, next to the Cours Mirabeau district.
The museum is devoted to...
Marseille on the Mediterranean coast definitely deserves a visit
The Jardin des Vestiges archeological site, the banks of the Old Port, Le Panier district (oldest part), MUCEM (Museum of European and Mediterranean Civilisations), the Vallon des Auffes district (little fishing haven) and more! In fact, there are heaps of things to see, covering 26 centuries of history, and lovers of the sea will be delighted with the bright blue Mediterranean.
The Mediterranean is a genuine treasure trove and trips to tour the Frioul islands (including the Chateau d'If - Count of Monte Cristo) and the Cassis creeks are top of the list. Then head back inland towards the Garlaban and Sainte-Baume mountain ranges to see Pagnol's Provence.
