The '''Église Saint-Ferréol les Augustins''' is a [[Roman Catholic]] church in [[Marseille]].
==Location==
The church building is located on the [[Old Port of Marseille]].<ref name="marseille13">[http://www.marseille13.fr/fr/eglise-saint-ferreol-les-augustins Marseille 13: Eglise Saint-Ferréol les Augustins]</ref> The exact address is Quai des Belges, 13001 Marseille.<ref name="marseillecatholique">[http://marseille.catholique.fr/Saint-Ferreol,302 Église Catholique à Marseille]</ref>
==History==
The original building on site was owned by the [[Knights Templar]].<ref name="official">[https://sites.google.com/site/saintfemarseille/notre-eglise/un-peu-d-histoire Official website: History]</ref> However, in 1369, it was given to a community of [[Augustinians|Augustinian]] hermits.<ref name="official"/><ref>Gaston Duchet-Suchaux, ''Les ordres religieux'', Paris: Flammarion, 1993, p. 26</ref> By 1447, they decided to spearhead the construction a new church building.<ref name="marseille13"/> It was dedicated in 1542, even though the vault was only completed in 1588.<ref name="marseille13"/><ref name="official"/>
During the [[Ancien Régime]] (15th century to 18th century), it was used for professional ceremonies.<ref name="official"/> For example, ship-porters had their own altars in the church as early as 1390: one dedicated to [[Saint Peter]], and a second one to [[Paul the Apostle|Saint Paul]].<ref name="official"/>
[[Pope Clement VII]] (1478–1534) married his niece, [[Catherine de' Medici]] (1519–1589), to [[Henry II of France]] (1519–1559), in this church on October 28, 1533.<ref name="marseille13"/>
During the [[French Revolution]] of 1789, it came close to being destroyed.<ref name="official"/> However, it was salvaged.<ref name="official"/> Shortly after, it was renamed in honour of [[Augustine of Hippo|Saint Augustine]].<ref name="official"/> Later, it was sold to a businessman.<ref name="official"/> Later, it was returned to the Catholic Church.<ref name="official"/>
The [[façade]] was destroyed in 1801, due to construction work on the street, and it was rebuilt in 1875.<ref name="official"/> In 1803, it was named in honour of Saint [[Ferréol de Vienne]], a Roman Catholic martyr from the 3rd century who was the namesake of another church in Marseille which was destroyed during the French Revolution.<ref name="official"/>
The high altar was designed by [[Dominique Fossaty]], as were the altars of the Augustinians and of the ship-porters.<ref name="official"/> Inside the church can also be found the Mazenod family's tomb dating back to 1564 and the Montolieu family's tomb, dating back to 1695.<ref name="official"/> The relics of Saint [[Louis of Toulouse]] (1274–1297) are also in the church.<ref name="official"/>
The church has a few works of art. Three paintings by [[Michel Serre]] (1658-1733) are displayed inside the church: ''Sainte Marguerite'', ''Le repos pendant la fuite en Égypte'', and ''La Vierge à l'enfant apparaissant à Saint Pierre et Saint Paul''.<ref name="official"/> There is also a bust of Saint Ferréol de Vienne. Additionally, there is a sculpture of Saint Augustine designed by [[Raymond Servian]] (1903-1953).<ref name="official"/> Another sculpture, by [[Élie-Jean Vézien]] (1890-1982), represents Saint Theresa. Yet another sculpture, this time by [[Louis Botinelly]] (1883-1962), is of [[Joan of Arc]].<ref name="official"/> A more recently sculpture, designed by [[Yves le Pape]] in 1979, depicts the Holy Family.<ref name="official"/>
The neogothic [[pipe organ]], designed by [[Augustin Zieger]], dates back to 1844.<ref name="official"/>
==At present==
The church building is open every weekday from 9AM to 6:30PM.<ref name="marseillecatholique"/> Mass is said every weekday at 12PM and 6PM, every Saturday at 6PM, every Sunday at 9:30AM, 11AM and 7PM.<ref name="marseillecatholique"/>
