Eglise Collégiale Notre-Dame de l'Assomption is a striking religious landmark located in the center of Cassis, just a few steps from the port. This 17th-century collegiate church dominates the town's skyline with its tall, square bell tower and baroque façade. The interior is equally impressive, with a single nave, side chapels, and a beautiful altarpiece. The church is dedicated to the Assumption of the Virgin Mary and remains an active place of worship. Visitors are welcome to explore the peaceful interior, admire the stained glass windows, and observe the local community at prayer. The church's location makes it a convenient stop while wandering through Cassis's old town. Its exterior is particularly photogenic in the late afternoon light when the stone glows golden. The church is also a venue for classical concerts during the summer months.
