The Château Borély is a chateau in the southern part of Marseille, France.

[1] Associated with Borély park and Marseille Borély golf course, it has been listed as a historical monument since 1936,[2] and has housed the Museum of Decorative Arts, Earthenware and Fashion since Marseille-Provence 2013[3] with its rich original decor.

The chateau was built in the eighteenth century for Louis Borély (1692–1768), a rich merchant of Marseille.

There are plans to transfer the Faïence Museum (Musée de la Faïence de Marseille) from the Château Pastré to the Château Borély, which will also hold the planned Museum of Decorative Arts and Fashion, as part of preparations for Marseille becoming the European cultural capital in 2013.
