The history of the arrondissement

The 6th arrondissement, around La Préfecture, Castellane and Vauban, took shape in the 19th century as a bourgeois, commercial district, extending the Vieux-Port southwards. The place Castellane and the rue de Rome are its major structuring axes.

The area of the cours Julien and Notre-Dame-du-Mont, on the heights, became over time a district of artists and nightlife, mixing studios, bookshops and terraces. Vauban and Lodi, more residential, have kept a well-tended bourgeois stock.

The 6th is today one of the most sought-after central arrondissements of Marseille. It combines a good older stock, shops, proximity to the Vieux-Port and direct metro access. Its liveliness and central position make it a prized address among professionals and families.

Who buys in the 6th

The 6th attracts professionals, executives and families looking for a central, lively and well-served district. The cours Julien appeals to a younger, more creative population, while Vauban, Lodi and the areas around La Préfecture interest a more wealth-focused clientele. Demand covers both small units, sought by investors, and large bourgeois apartments near Le Prado. Renovated, well-located properties change hands above the arrondissement average.
