Origin and history
The Domaine de la Roserie is a property located in the 14th arrondissement of Marseille, specifically on the road to Les Bessons, in the Sainte-Marthe district. Built in the late 19th century, it consists of a bastide, a farm and a park, reflecting the architecture and uses of the provencal estates of that time. Its name evokes its connection to local flora and its residential history.
The estate was designed in 1884 by architect J.B. Caillol for Rose Boyer, who sponsored it. It has long served as a venue for cultural events, demonstrating its importance in Marseille social life. Ranked historic monument by decree of June 12, 1991, it includes remarkable interior elements, factories, a portal and rocks. Despite its ranking, the estate is now abandoned after being acquired by a carrier to facilitate access to the careers of Sainte-Marthe.
Available sources, including Wikipedia and Monumentum, confirm its status as mixed property (state and private company), as well as its precise address: 114 Chemin Vicinal des Bessons, in the Bouches-du-Rhône department. Its listing in the inventory of historic monuments underscores its heritage value, although its current state raises questions about its future preservation.
