La Musée de la Faïence, pottery museum, Marseille

La Musée de la Faïence, a lovely ceramics museum set in the Parc de la campagne Pastré.  The museum is housed in the Château Pastré, a fine 19th century house, with views towards the massif of Marseilleveyre.  The museum primarily focuses on provincial and French work from the 17th to 20th century, however, examples of German, Scandinavian, Italian and French design from 1930-1990 can be found at the conclusion of the exhibition on the top floor.
