Parc Longchamp, Urban park in 4th arrondissement, Marseille, France

The park covers eight hectares with French gardens, English landscape sections, and ornate paths surrounding the grand Palais Longchamp water tower complex.

The construction of Palais Longchamp and its gardens began in 1839 to celebrate the completion of the Canal de Marseille, bringing water from Durance river.

The park includes two significant museums: the Museum of Fine Arts in the east wing and the Natural History Museum in the west wing.

Open daily from 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM, the park features children's playgrounds, pony rides, refreshment stands, and multiple recreational areas.

The remains of a former zoo, operational from 1898 to 1987, include decorative animal pavilions and ornate cages integrated into the garden landscape.
