Lenche Square

Ce point d’intérêt est disponible en audio dans le circuit: Visit Marseille, The Phocean City
This little neighborhood square oozes southern charm, with cafés and restaurants opening onto wide terraces in the summertime! Believe it or not, this was once the heart of the ancient Greek city of Massalia, which stretched out all around what’s now known as the Panier district. Back in the day, it was called Saint-Sauveur Square, but it got its current name from a Corsican family who built a private mansion here in the 1500s. That mansion is now the Lenche Theater! As you explore further, keep your eyes peeled for the Basilica of Notre-Dame-de-la-Garde perched on the hill in the distance.
