Remains of a century monastery, one of the oldest in Marseille, with a crypt containing precious archaeological evidence

One of the oldest remains in the city. It was in the5th century that the monastery was founded and a chapel was created on the very site of the tombs of several martyrs, including Saint-Victor, who gave his name to the religious building. During its history, the abbey spread throughout the south of France and one of its abbots was appointed pope in 1362. Today, a visit to the site allows you to take the measure of more than 1,500 years of history and to discover the crypt, a bewitching place containing precious archaeological evidence.

Si vous avez décidé d'aller au Four aux navettes vous pouvez toujours pousser votre visite jusqu'à l'Abbaye Saint-Victor toute proche. Vous ne serez pas déçu par la visite. Très belle architecture.

A voir absolument, une des plus anciennes églises de Marseille.
L'aspect fortifié rappelle la nécessité de se protéger. L'esplanade domine le port et offre une jolie vue sur le fort St Jean.

Cette abbaye vaut vraiment le détour si vous passez par là; avec ses cryptes. De plus, à la sortie, vous pourrez aller acheter les vraies navettes marseillaises !

L'abbaye de Saint-Victor fait partie des rares endroits du centre de Marseille a être toujours très calme ! La vue sur le port de Marseille vaut le détour. A l'intérieur, plusieurs reliques, il ne faut pas hésiter à descendre dans les cryptes, peut-être que les explications sont un peu partielles...
Et surtout quand, vous partez, faites le tour de l'abbaye pour voir quelques traces des anciennes constructions de cette abbaye...
