Continue straight until you reach the Place de la Mairie. From there, take Boulevard de la République heading south. Follow this road until it becomes Rue des Tanneurs. Walk all the way down Rue des Tanneurs until you reach the Gare Routière (Bus Station). From the bus station, you can catch a bus to Marseille. Look for bus number 40 or 91, which will take you directly to Marseille's city center. After arriving in Marseille, head towards the Vieux Port (Old Port) and follow the signs to the Metro. Take the Metro Line 1 towards La Fourragère and get off at the 'Réformés-Canebière' station. From there, exit the station and walk to the nearby Eglise Saint Laurent.
