When commissioned, Marseillaise joined the French Mediterranean Squadron and became the flagship of Contre-Amiral Decoux in 1938. In January 1939 she joined the 3rd Cruiser Division at Casablanca, and she was at Toulon when war was declared, as flagship of the 4th Squadron, part of Force Z. Marseillaise participated in the transport of gold to Canada in April 1940. The burnt-out hull of the Marseillaise was scrapped in 1946/47.
