Château de la Buzine, Castle and cinema museum in 11th arrondissement, Marseille, France.

Château de la Buzine is a castle and cinema museum in the 11th arrondissement of Marseille. The building displays eclectic architectural features such as turrets, balconies, and a symmetrical facade adorned with detailed stonework and ornamental patterns.

Pierre-Hilaire Curtil, a Marseille architect-entrepreneur, bought the estate in 1865, demolished the old bastide and built the present château on its foundations, completed in 1869. In 1941 Marcel Pagnol bought it to create a film city, but the German army requisitioned it the following year. Sold in 1973 to Kaufman & Broad, it was listed as a monument historique on 13 January 1997.

The château's name comes from Henry de Buzens, squire of Marseille, who called the estate "La Buzine" in 1667. Since June 2011 it has housed the Maison des cinématographies de la Méditerranée, with a 350-seat cinema, an exhibition room in the former music salon and a film library. Marcel Pagnol bought it in 1941 hoping to make a film city there.

The château stands in the centre of the Parc des Sept Collines housing estate, bordered by a five-hectare park. The cinema hall seats 350 people and has a balcony and orchestra level; the exhibition room occupies the restored early-20th-century music salon. The library-videothèque has touch screens and specialised cinema books and archive documents.

Marcel Pagnol bought the estate in 1941 to turn it into a film city, but the château was requisitioned by the German army the following year. In his Souvenirs d'enfance he describes the building as having at least ten floors and thirty carved stone balconies on each facade, neither of which is true.
