Description

The Château de La Buzine is a 19th-century building located in the 11th arrondissement of Marseille.

It owes its fame to Marcel Pagnol, who evoked it in his Souvenirs d'enfance and was subsequently its owner.

Since 2010, it has housed the "Maison des cinématographies de la Méditerranée", managed by the cinémathèque de Marseille and then by the association du château de La Buzine under a public service delegation with the city of Marseille, owner of the premises.
