Jardin de la Magalone, Historical garden on Boulevard Michelet, Marseille, France
The garden extends over 1.4 hectares with two terraces featuring fountains representing the Rhône and Saône rivers near an 18th-century bastide.
The construction of the bastide began in the late 17th century, followed by a pause before resuming in 1713 and continuing through the 18th century.
The garden houses the Cité de la musique, organizing concerts and conferences both inside the bastide and throughout the landscaped grounds.
Located at 43°15′42″N latitude and 5°23′54″E longitude, the garden maintains varying operating hours throughout different seasons of the year.
Four statues depicting seasons and five sculptures from Château de Grignan decorate the garden paths alongside geometric arrangements of tulip trees.
