Château Borély
In the heart of a wooded park and close to the sea, Château Borély is one of the last testimonies of the tradition of Provençal country houses built in the 18th century by the wealthy population of Marseille. Restored in 2013, the castle has
almost entirely retained its original décor. Devoted to decorative arts and fashion, the museum is also a showcase for
contemporary creation, with temporary design exhibitions and a large fashion collection, around personalities such as Azzedine Alaïa, Jean-Paul Gaultier and Christelle Koché.
