The Cathedral of Marseille is located in the west of the ancient city. The building itself is built in white and black marble, and is a gem of Roman Byzantine architecture in the 19th century. Several tall glass windows inside are the source of only natural light inside the church. There are countless collections, exquisite altars and the tomb of the revered 18th century bishops

    Marseille Cathedral- is a Roman Catholic cathedral and national monument of France. It is the only cathedral built in France in the 19th century. Built in a Byzantine style, it is one of the largest churches in France. It was built over 40 years, between 1852 and 1893.

    The interior of the Cathedral of Marseille is also magnificent. The church is located on a hillside and it is refreshing to overlook the Blue Coast. Sitting in the shade, there is a sea breeze, very pleasant.

    As the cathedral of Marseille, the church is large in size and is an important feature of Byzantine style. It is currently under renovation, and the two towers on the front are wrapped in cloth and the rest are basically completed. The interior is open normally, it seems that it has not been repaired, maintain the original appearance, tourists can visit for free, and take pictures. The traffic nearby is not very convenient, at least ten minutes walk from the subway station.

    The church is designed with a distinctive white marble and Florence green rock, and the whole church is shaped like a zebra. The church is located near the old port of Marseille, close to the Museum of Mediterranean Civilization and the ancient castle on the edge of the old port, facing the sea and with a wide view. The church has four large domes, with large interior space and no luxury decoration. In the square outside the church, there is a bronze statue of the bishop, allegedly dedicated to the church by insisting on joining the church during the plague pandemic of the eighteenth century.
