MuSaMa: make your own Marseille soap
A historical emblem of the heritage of the Phocaean city, Marseille soap finally has its own museum, easily accessible as it is located between the Old Port and the Canebière.
The museum is called MuSaMa… it is a contraction of Marseille Soap Museum.
The visit takes the form of an immersive journey that allows you to discover the secrets of soap making.
Educational and fun , it is aimed at tourists, schoolchildren but also cruise passengers stopping over in Marseille.
It takes about twenty minutes, after which you can leave with your Marseille soap made in real time.
A real luxury when you know that the majority of soaps bearing the label " Marseille soap " are actually made abroad….
MuSaMa: 5 minutes walk from the Belle Vue hotel
The project was designed by the architectural firm Richard and Anne-Claude Carta. Richard Carta was ideally suited to carry out this project… He wrote a novel which tells the story of a master soap maker.
The museum is a private establishment which was financed by fundraising and calls for donations.
It echoes the desire of the Conservatoire National du Savon de Marseille to protect the appellation.
MuSaMa is located in the historic district of Marseille, between the Maritime and Economic Museum and the Marseille History Museum.
Opening March 12, 2018 – price: 12 euros
