Le Panier, Historic neighborhood in Marseille, France.

Le Panier features narrow streets and stone buildings connected by staircases, creating a network of passages throughout the elevated district.

Founded by Greek settlers in 600 BCE, this district marks the original settlement of Marseille and underwent reconstruction following World War II damage.

La Vieille Charité, designed by Pierre Puget in the 17th century, houses three museums displaying Mediterranean archaeological artifacts and contemporary art exhibitions.

Visitors can explore the district through guided walking tours that start from the Vieux Port and include stops at local artisan workshops.

The neighborhood contains over forty street art murals integrated into its architecture, transforming building walls into open-air galleries.
