Parc du 26ème Centenaire
Park4.1 · 5 4103.8 · 90≈ 45 minFree entry2.3 km from the center
A ten-hectare park behind Saint-Charles station, opened in 1999 to celebrate 26 centuries of Marseille's history. It is laid out as four era-gardens: Greek with a colonnade, Roman, oriental and Provençal with plants of the French south. The elevated ground brings unexpected panoramas over the city and sea, and the fountain terraces make an easy picnic spot on a sunny day. A convenient pause between station and centre that most travellers miss.
Highlights
- Four era-gardens from Greek to Provençal
- Panoramas of Marseille from the plateau
- 10 hectares behind Saint-Charles station
