Plateau de Gergovie, Mountain viewpoint in La Roche-Blanche, France.
The Gergovie plateau reaches an elevation of 708 meters and presents views of the Puys mountain range and surrounding volcanic landscapes.
The plateau marks the location of the Battle of Gergovia in 52 BC, where Vercingetorix successfully defended against Julius Caesar's Roman legions.
The archaeological museum displays artifacts from excavations and documents the Celtic-Roman conflict through interactive exhibitions and multimedia presentations.
Visitors can reach the summit through multiple hiking paths from La Roche-Blanche, with the main route extending 6.3 kilometers.
A 26-meter-tall commemorative monument, built in 1900 using Volvic stone, stands at the summit of the plateau.
