Sommet du Puy-de-Dôme : J.Demaze

Come and explore one of the world’s first meteorological observatory still active at the summit since 1871. This one faces an air force site that will do us the honor of flying over the Puy-de-Dôme in the afternoon.
This excursion to the top of the Puy-de-Dôme will guide you behind the scenes of the Panoramic of the Domes to those of the restoration to reach the remains of the temple of Mercury, Roman heritage overhung by its museum space.
