Auvergne is an historical region in central France, now part of Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes. The mostly rural, mountainous area is popular for hiking and skiing, with forests and dormant volcanoes such as Puy de Dôme. Natural hot springs spawned spa towns such as Vichy, known for its mineral water. Its capitol, Clermont-Ferrand is a busy university city with a Romanesque church, Notre-Dame du Port.
