La entrada es gratuita al complejo cultural. Luego cada exposición en las distintas salas pueden tener un precio u otro incluso ser de entrada libre. . Hay una cafetería y para entrar hay que pasar un pequeño control con personas muy amables. La Iglesia estaba cerrada. Los baños sencillamente lamentables. Antiguo hogar de beneficencia del siglo XVIII en un estupendo complejo bien conservado y lleno de vida en pleno barrio de Le Panier. Fuimos un sábado por la mañana y no había mucha gente y nos atendieron muy bien. Interesante visita.
Muy típico el centro historico y según me comentaron que los gráfitis en todos lados eran parte del centro historico de Marsella. Igual a unos pasos ya sales a zonas mas modernas y hermosas. Pero todo supera lindo.
Está chulo es un museo por plantas y la entrada gratis de momento en 2 años lo podrán de pago hay cabezas reducidas una momia de verdad que tiene un pedazo de rabo que no le cabe en el sarcófago por lo demás vale la pena entrar y pasarse las 2h de recorrido que tiene
