Cabriès, Medieval commune in Bouches-du-Rhône, France

Located between Aix-en-Provence and Marseille at 210 meters elevation, Cabriès extends across 37 square kilometers of Provençal territory.

The ninth-century Château de Cabriès underwent substantial reconstruction during the eighteenth century and later became home to painter Edgar Mélik in 1934.

The Musée Mélik, housed within the château, exhibits an extensive collection of artworks, including pieces from Picasso, Dali, and César.

The commune offers direct access to neighboring cities through the A8 motorway and N7 road, with train stations available in Septèmes-les-Vallons and Simiane-Collongue.

From the château terrace, visitors observe an uninterrupted panorama stretching from Mount Sainte Victoire to Mont Ventoux across the Provençal landscape.
