Jaude Square

The Jaude Place is the central square (even if it's a little west) in Clermont. It is rectangular, and surrounded by buildings of all ages, so it's accessible by many bus and train lines. A large shopping centre nearby allows you to purchase food, and located in front is the statue of Vercingetorix, the Gallic opponent of Julius Caesar. There is a bit of everything surrounding it, like a McDonalds and other fast food places, bars and terraces, benches to wait for friends so that you can grab a drink in the old town or in the lively new streets.
