🎬 Tour Description

A pink-hued church clings stubbornly to its hill, the ancient stones of Marseille whispering secrets older than the Old Port itself. This isn’t just a city, it’s a stage set for centuries of fierce rebellions, unsung heroes, chilling plagues, and the kind of everyday defiance that survives every storm. Take this self-guided audio tour and unlock Marseille’s heart—moving through windswept plazas, fishermen’s shadows, and squares hiding mysteries even locals miss.

Which fearless bishop risked everything at the gates of Saint-Laurent while death crept through the city? Why did a circle of nuns mutilate themselves rather than surrender to invaders in Lenche Square? And how did a single sunrise at Esplanade de la Tourette change one man’s fate forever?

Let your footsteps retrace bold escapes and buried scandals while the sea breeze tugs you deeper into history. Start exploring now—the stories hidden behind rose stone walls are waiting for you to listen.
