Key Tourist Sights:
If you are a fan of cathedrals then make sure you pay a visit to Cathedrale de la Major. This large and impressive building is located in the old section of the city, and displays some wonderful architecture. It dates back to the Middle Ages, and you can visit at any time of the year.
Abbaye de Saint Victor dates back to the 5th century and is still preserved incredibly well. Although it has been destroyed on a number of occasions, it was strengthened in the 14th century. Make sure you pay a trip to the crypt which is one of the major attractions here.
For something entirely different, head to the Fashion Museum. This is located in the centre of the city and contains a number of collections and items of interest related to French fashion. There is a huge collection of costumes and many of the items on display are exquisite.
If you head to Place Castellane then you will find yourself in one of the best public squares in Marseille, and the main attraction here is Castellane Fountain. It is a huge monument and very recognisable, so make sure you check it out and enjoy relaxing in the square watching life go by with the locals.
Best Known For:
If there is one thing that Marseille is known for above all else it is its fish soup, known as bouillabaisse. You will find this sold all over the city, and it is a delicious local delicacy that contains fish, vegetables and shellfish, and is served along with croûtes.
Marseille is the largest commercial port in France so it is a very important city in the country, but although it is a busy port city it is still a beautiful place to visit.
The football team of the city, Marseille FC, is one of the most well known in France. It has won the French title on nine occasions and the Coupe de France on 10 occasions, as well as the Champions League.
Marseille is also known for its soap, Savon de Marseille. It has been made in the city for about 600 years, and is made from vegetable oils. There used to be hundreds of soap making companies still in the city, but now only a handful remain.
