Marseille is the oldest city in France—and its nearly 2,600-year history has found a truly worthy showcase in this modernized museum. When the district behind the Stock Exchange was renovated in 1967, something sensational came to light: the works uncovered remains that documented the vast extent of the ancient harbor. What began as an ordinary urban renewal project evolved into what remains France's most ambitious and significant urban archaeological excavation to this day.
