Traveler reviews
Stella Maris
★★★★★5 months agoHuis Marseille is a great museum if you’re looking for something a bit more niche in photography. Compared to Foam, the exhibitions here feel more special and curated, often showcasing photographers and themes you don’t see everywhere. The location itself is amazing — set in beautiful historic canal houses, which adds a lot to the experience of walking through the exhibitions. It’s a quieter and more intimate museum, making it easy to really take your time with the work on display. If you’re interested in photography beyond the mainstream, this is definitely worth visiting.
