Gerzat

Gerzat has served as an agricultural settlement in the Limagne plain since the Middle Ages. Now part of Clermont-Ferrand’s northern urban area, it occupies level, fertile ground beneath the volcanic highlands of central France. To the west rises the Chaîne des Puys, a line of volcanic cones that forms, with the Limagne fault, the UNESCO-listed Chaîne des Puys–Limagne tectonic arena. Gerzat’s older centre is marked by the Church of Saint-Bonnet, while everyday life combines established neighbourhoods with business and transport activity around Clermont-Ferrand.
