Port Antique, Archaeological park in central Marseille, France

The Ancient Port reveals archaeological remains spread across one hectare, displaying the port and defensive structures of the ancient Greek and Roman city.

The archaeological excavations, conducted between 1967 and 1983, uncovered structures dating back to the 4th century BC, during the Greek colony of Massalia.

The site preserves a monumental gate, a Roman road, and port structures that demonstrate the architectural evolution of the city through centuries.

The archaeological park remains open from 9:30 AM to 6:00 PM Tuesday through Sunday, with direct access to the Museum of Marseille History.

The park layout includes 600 square meters of Mediterranean honey-producing plants, recreating the natural environment of ancient Marseille.
