Maquettes géantes

Three giant models of the Chaîne des Puys and all of Auvergne’s volcanoes enable you to discover the importance of volcanism in the region but also to understand how they function, thanks to an animated cross-section of the earth’s crust.

Constructed on scale, illustrated with cross-sections, they show you the largest volcanic mountains in Auvergne, including some of the most renowned, such as the Puy de Dôme, the Pariou, the Puy Mary and the Puy de Sancy (highest point of the Massif Central).
