14th arrondissement of Marseille

The 14th arrondissement is a municipal district in northern Marseille comprising seven neighborhoods with varying residential and commercial character. These areas—Les Arnavaux, Bon-Secours, Le Canet, Le Merlan, Saint-Barthélémy, Saint-Joseph, and Sainte-Marthe—form a mixed urban landscape with different densities and architectural styles.

This district developed during the 20th century as residential areas were built to accommodate Marseille's growing population. Its neighborhoods emerged through different phases of urban expansion, each bringing its own construction patterns and community structures.

The neighborhoods within this district reflect different living traditions and social patterns shaped by their local development over time. You'll notice how each area has its own character, visible in how residents use their streets and maintain their spaces.

The district is accessible by public transport and includes local schools and services spread across its neighborhoods. As this is primarily a residential area, it helps to plan your visit to specific neighborhoods or facilities you want to explore.

The area maintains a notably varied composition where traditional working-class neighborhoods sit alongside newer residential developments. This mix creates a place where different housing generations and urban development phases are visibly present side by side.
