Les Pennes-Mirabeau lies north of Marseille, in a Provençal landscape of hills, residential neighbourhoods and major roads. Plan de Campagne, a large shopping area shared with Cabriès, defines the area: visitors come for the shops and leisure activities, while the old villages nearby offer a change of pace. This address suits travellers with a car who want to explore Marseille, Aix-en-Provence and the towns north of the Étang de Berre.

Cabriès is worth visiting for its hilltop old village and its château, which houses the Musée Edgar Mélik, dedicated to the painter’s work. Château de Cabriès and the museum are 3.2 km away. In Marseille, the Palais Longchamp brings together a monumental palace, two museums and a public garden; the Mémorial du camp des Milles, near Aix-en-Provence, recounts the history of the former internment and deportation camp. Marseille-Provence Airport is 10 km away. Septèmes and Saint-Antoine railway stations serve the area, but a car makes it easier to travel between these sites.

The Mediterranean climate makes sightseeing pleasant in spring and autumn, when temperatures are generally milder. In summer, expect hot weather and sunny days; Marseille’s proximity makes it easy to combine a morning of sightseeing in the city with a break by the sea. For a quieter outing, spend a few hours in Cabriès village and visit its museum, then head to Aix-en-Provence or central Marseille, depending on what you fancy. Major museums and heritage sites can be visited year-round, subject to their opening hours.
