The Armenian Cathedral of the Prado, also known as the "Holy Translators", is a building built between 1928 and 1931, based on the model of a basilica near Yerevan in Armenia. The links between Marseille and the Armenian community are deep and go back to the Middle Ages. But it was the wave of refugees from the 1915 genocide that definitively sealed this fusional link. The traditional Armenian district of Marseille is located in Beaumont (where there is an imposing genocide memorial) but the church was planted here in the 8th arrondissement. In the garden, a moving memorial was inaugurated in the 1970s. It was the first memorial erected in a large French city.
