## Visit Cathedral la Major

Activities

#### With its cavernous interior full of reminders of the city’s ancient past, this principal place of worship in Marseille is a neo-Byzantine masterpiece.

It’s hard to miss Marseille's Cathedral la Major, whose striped façade looms over the waterfront. It was built in 1893 as the centerpiece of Marseille’s religious community. It is also one of France’s largest cathedrals, with room for 3,000 worshippers. Visit Cathedral la Major to feel the extensive history in the design and relics displayed.

Though relatively recently built, the cathedral testifies to the length of Christianity’s presence in Marseille, which is said to be one of the first Christian cities in Gaul. The new religion was brought by mariners, and, some say, by Mary Magdalene and St. Lazarus herself.

Before entering the church, stand outside to note the striped façade evoking the Greek origins of both the city of Marseille and Christianity itself. To the right, spot remains of the old cathedral that once stood on this spot, built in a more traditional Romanesque style.

Head towards the building itself, but take a moment to appreciate the elaborate mosaic-style ceiling decoration that hides under the arch in front of the main doorway.

Walk inside and appreciate the sheer size of the building, enhanced by the decorative imagery on every surface. Admire the black-and-white floor tiles and the art nouveau paintings decorating the interior of the minor shrines’ cupolas.

To the right is the chapel of St. Lazarus, which holds relics said to be that of the Lazarus whom Jesus raised from the dead. Legend says he became the first Bishop of Marseille. Notice on the main dome the names of early Christian saints associated with the city.

The Cathedral la Major is located in the center of Marseille’s tourist districts, a 15-minute walk or 10-minute bus ride from the Old Port. From the main train station it’s a 20-minute walk or 10-minute bus ride. Travel to the cathedral from the airport in 1 hour by bus or 25 minutes by car. Metered parking is available in a few nearby structures.

The cathedral is open for visitors from Wednesday to Saturday, from mid morning to early evening, with hours extended slightly in the summer. Check online for the Mass schedule.
