More about La sardine de Marseille

Marseille without sardines would not be Marseille! Far from any legend, the story of the sardine which blocked the port dates back to the 18th century. The sardine was in fact a Sartine: the name of a frigate of King Louis XVI which repatriated to Marseille a French officer liberated by the English in Pondicherry. This imposing ship was captured as it entered the port under British fire. The sunken boat then prevented any entry and exit from the port until its evacuation.
