The Musée Provençal de Château-Gombert is an ethnographic museum in Marseille, the second largest ethnographic museum in the Provence region after the Arlaten museum in Arles . The Musée Provençal was inaugurated in 1928 and is located in the Château-Gombert, an 18th century castle and former private residence. The museum's extensive collection has several elements within it, such as furniture, paintings, porcelain, textiles, ancient costumes, sacred art, and agricultural tools.
