Does anyone know what the name of the train station in Marseilles, France is where you catch the train to Aix-en-Provence, France? Also, what should I see in Aix?

The main station, a really big one, is Marseilles St Charles.

The trains to Aix all start or pass through there.

Most of the faster trains also call at Saint Antoine, the slower ones also stop at a few more stops in Marseilles.

That is to the Aix-en-Provence station.

There is also the Aix-en-Provence TGV station but the trains don't go a lot quicker, cost a lot more and the station is less convenient.

For what to do, that takes up many paragraphs in most French tourbooks, more than I'd like to write here. Rick Steves Provence, a similarly named book by Lonely Planet or Michelin Green Guides or several more will have loads of detail.
