A beautiful building at a wonderful vantage point overlooking the caost line at Marseille. If you are feeling energetic it can be walked but there are other options

It is on the highest point of the city, so basically you could see the golden statue of the Basilique Notre Dame de la Garde from everywhere in Marseille. In order to have a close-up view of the church and see the interior, my hubby and I decided to walked straight from the old port to the church that windy... More

We didn't realize how high the attraction was on a hill, OR that you could actually drive or take a bus up there! A little winded when we reached the top, but the view was completely worth it. An overlook of Marseille and the clear, blue Mediterranean coast. Absolutely beautiful inside, as well.

Thank Goodness I went up the Hill to see this place! It is worth a thousand visits and more!! I got dropped off at The Panier in Marseille, where almost everyone goes to! From a distance, a magnificent looking Palace over towered the entire city, this was something I had to see. So I took the train from The Panier,... More

We decided to walk from the Port. It was a beautiful day and the walk was great! At the top, we enjoyed fabulous views, and it was a clear day, a great bonus! The inside of the church is beautiful. Well worth the trip!

Easy acces to this church at the heart of the city, by car (park available near the top) and by bus. The 360 panorama is breathtaking, showing the sea, the islands and the city. A place to go first to get a global idea of Marseille before visiting.

A must to see when you are in Marseille. Beautifull ceiling in the church. Take the hop on hop of bus.

This church is visible from almost everywhere in Marseille. We took Le Petite Train to visit it and the views from the peak on which it sits are nothing short of spectacular. The church and grounds are well-maintained and accessible. This truly is worth a visit and I would consider it a highlight of Marseille. Don't miss it!

Take bus 60 from Vieux Port to the church- You will get a beautiful view of Marseille, the port, and the Sea.
