Summary

[edit]
Description

Belsunce | La Canebière The Grand Hôtel du Louvre et de la Paix has been considered the most prestigious and luxurious hotel in the city of Marseille until its closing in 1941. Its facade is decorated with four massive caryatids manufactured by the Aix sculptor Hippolyte Ferrat. Each is holding an animal representing a continent: the sphinx for America, the elephant for Asia, the dromedary for Africa and the winged fish for Europe. Arch. Jean-Charles Pot 1863.

The building was bought in 1984 by the famous brand C & A, which opened its shop four years later after a deep renovation completed in accordance with the original architecture.
