Entre\u00a01680 et\u00a01748, sous le r\u00e8gne de Louis XIV, Marseille et son port militaire abritaient le plus grand arsenal des gal\u00e8res du royaume de France. Ces navires \u00e0 voiles et \u00e0 rames \u00e9taient assembl\u00e9s sur l\u2019actuel Vieux-Port, pr\u00e8s du cours d\u2019Estienne-d\u2019Orves, c\u0153ur d\u2019un arsenal contenant pas moins de 40 bateaux militaires de ce type. Long de 40 m\u00e8tres et large de 9 m\u00e8tres, chacun \u00e9tait compos\u00e9 de 200 rameurs, en majorit\u00e9 des prisonniers de droit commun condamn\u00e9s \u00e0 servir sur ces gal\u00e8res du Roi.<\/p>\n
Dans une ville de Marseille qui comprenait 60\u00a0000 habitants, ces gal\u00e9riens, reconnaissables \u00e0 leur tenue (chemise blanche, pantalon, casaque et bonnet rouges), \u00e9taient au nombre de 10\u00a0000 dans une sorte de prison \u00e0 ciel ouvert o\u00f9 ils pouvaient entrer et sortir. Ce r\u00e9gime de pseudo-libert\u00e9 assez particulier n\u2019autorisait cependant aucune possibilit\u00e9 d\u2019\u00e9vasion, puisque toute tentative \u00e9tait fatalement annihil\u00e9e par la population, un gibet flottant sur le port rappelant \u00e9galement \u00e0 l\u2019ordre les prisonniers les plus t\u00e9m\u00e9raires.<\/p>\n
Vincent de Paul \u00e9tait l\u2019aum\u00f4nier r\u00e9al des gal\u00e8res. Il a lev\u00e9 des fonds avec Gaspard de Simiane pour construire l\u2019h\u00f4pital des gal\u00e8res.<\/p>\n
