Comment

The puy of Lemptégy is a volcano of the chain of Puys, in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, a volcanic zone of metropolitan France still potentially active (said to be dormant). It is also, by arrangement, a naturalist museum presenting an open-air volcano interior excavated by careful exploitation of non-cohesive or poorly cohesive materials, the pozzolan, thus highlighting the internal architecture of the eruptive vents, namely the central volcanic chimneys and a system of lateral dykes. An exhibition and in season, animations, complete the installation. This site, because of its unique educational interest in France and rare in Western Europe, is frequently visited by school groups and used for teaching in the field by university groups. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puy_de_Lempt%C3%A9gy
