| Château dââ¬â¢If near the french town of Marseille had to fulfill three functions: protect the coast from invasion; provide cover for the new royal fleet of galleys, and keep watch over Marseille, annexed to France in 1480. Anyone opposing official authority was imprisoned here from 1580 until 1871, especially Protestants and Republicans. |
