Marseille, 1900-1943, La mauvaise réputation

June 20 at 2:30pm

Hôtel de Ville

This exhibition confronts the January 1943 roundup of Jewish families in Marseille and the destruction of the Vieux-Port's old quarters: 14 hectares razed, 1,500 deported, 20,000 displaced. It traces how decades of "bad reputation" imagery made the unthinkable possible. A sobering reckoning with how history, perception, and catastrophe intertwine.
