Located at the entrance to the Vieux-Port, the Mucem has become Marseille's unmissable museum since its opening in 2013. Globally recognised for its architecture, which blends technical prowess and aesthetic power, the Mucem is the great museum dedicated to the Mediterranean. Its two buildings, the J4 and Fort Saint-Jean, take us on a journey between sky and sea, heritage and modernity, city and gardens. Its exhibitions present the major cultural, social, scientific and political issues of the Euro-Mediterranean world, past and present, by blending arts, anthropology, history, archaeology…
