Château de la Buzine, Castle and cinema museum in 11th arrondissement, Marseille, France.
The limestone mansion features eclectic architectural elements, including turrets, balconies, and a symmetrical facade with intricate stone carvings and decorative patterns.
Built in 1867 by architect Pierre-Hilaire Curtil, the castle replaced an earlier structure and gained prominence when writer Marcel Pagnol purchased it in 1941.
The castle now functions as the Mediterranean Cinema Center, containing a 350-seat theater, exhibition spaces, and a specialized library with film archives.
The facility opens daily except Mondays, offering guided tours, film screenings, temporary exhibitions, and spaces for private events and conferences.
The castle grounds span 40 hectares with rare trees and water features, incorporating elements from the Marseille canal system into its landscape design.
