About Chateau Borely Marseille

30 minutes out of the main city and one reaches this quiet locality that is host to the beautiful Chateau Borely, built by Lord Borely who later on gifted the Chateau to the city of Marseille along with his vast collection of art and fashion. This is a premier spot for tourists to sample the culture of the locals.

 Wonderfully presented exhibits and unparalleled collection of art make the museums overall appeal higher, the attractive garden out front, layered with lush green grass, and the beach at the back are great places to stretch your legs out after lunch. Inside the furniture and antique ceramic collection are marvelous, featuring stunning motifs and French design. This majestic show of French design does not disappoint making the long trip worthwhile for any traveler looking to sample the true heart of France.
