Town Hall
Ce point d’intérêt est disponible en audio dans le circuit: Visit Marseille, The Phocean City
This Town Hall stands where the old 13th-century City Council building used to be. It’s one of the few buildings in the district to have survived World War II. Dating back to the 17th century, this Genoese-style edifice took 20 years to build and was listed as a historical monument in 1948. Fun fact: they had actually split the building in two: merchants on the ground floor and the councilmen up on the first floor. To keep things extra separate, there wasn’t even a staircase connecting the two floors! So the councilmen had to go through the building behind this one to get to their floor!
