The Marseille Saint-Charles station building is a must-see site in his city. It embodies in its structure and its evolution the history of Marseille’s urban planning. Armelle FABRY, architect at SNCF Gares & Connexions, participated in the design of the last major project of modernization/ expansion of the station. During this visit, she will share with you her experience, her knowledge of the architectural biases of this building, the anecdotes related to its construction and its evolutions, the issues and problems that had to be overcome to make the Saint-Charles a model station in terms of modernism and architectural success.
