Review:

As the world’s first museum dedicated to Mediterranean cultures, The Museum of the Civilizations of Europe and the Mediterranean (MuCEM) is a unique concept which visitors should not miss seeing. The actual museum is spread over three separate buildings, all of which should be seen to fully appreciate the story. In the Old Port area you will find the ultra-modern J4 building and the ancient Fort St Jean which are linked by two footbridges symbolizing the links between various Mediterranean countries. Here you can admire permanent and temporary exhibitions and wonderful views of the Old Port and beyond. The third site belonging to MuCEM is located in the city center where it safeguards and showcases a collection of over 1 million objects.
