Église Saint Roch, Catholic parish church in Mazargues district, Marseille, France

Église Saint Roch is a church on Place Saint-Roch in the Mazargues district of Marseille's 9th arrondissement. Its pale cream stone facade has a taller central section topped by a Latin cross, with a black clock face with gold Roman numerals above a circular window. The main portal is a round-arched doorway flanked by two smooth columns with carved capitals.

A first chapel in Mazargues was founded by the local lords after the plague of 1387, which lasted three years, and was dedicated to Saint Roch, patron of the plague-stricken. The church became a parish on 18 June 1803 under Archbishop Jérôme Champion de Cicé. Facing population growth, curé Carbonel commissioned Pascal Coste; the project was revised by Auguste Martin, work ended in 1851 and Bishop Eugène de Mazenod consecrated the building.

The church serves as a gathering place for the local Catholic community and hosts regular worship services and celebrations. It has remained central to neighborhood life since its construction in the 19th century.

The church is located on Place Saint Roch in the Mazargues district and welcomes visitors throughout the week. Check ahead if attending services, as worship times may affect general access to the building.

The left aisle holds Michel Serre's painting of the Apotheosis of Saint Roch, restored between 2004 and 2008 by the Centre Interrégional de Conservation et de Restauration du Patrimoine. In the right aisle, an anonymous fresco shows the death of Saint Joseph, with Christ and the Virgin supporting him as angels point the way to paradise.
