Saint-Charles

Located in the 1st arrondissement, the Saint-Charles district is right in the heart of Marseille, close to the eponymous train station. Bordered by the Noailles, Belsunce, Thiers and Arenc districts, it offers a lively, multicultural atmosphere.

As part of the Quartiers Libres urban development project, the Saint-Charles district is set to benefit from a new dynamic. Already undergoing a major transformation, the district is home to the Faculty of Law and Economics, as well as the new Marseille School of Architecture.

In addition to the railway station that bears its name, the district is very well served by public transport, as it is central.

The nearby Noailles market offers a wide variety of products.

Saint-Julien

The Saint-Julien district is located between Saint-Barnabé, Montolivet and la Fourragère. It is a residential area that has preserved a rare quality of life.

In this village with its narrow streets, there are beautiful middle-class properties and many green spaces.
