A refuge in the heart of the Calanques
The Marseille outskirts have often been used to relegate activities including industry, prisons, transit camps, and then low-income housing. However, beyond the suburbs, this mixed neighbourhood has a fascinating history, reflecting the world's social and geopolitical upheavals.
