Auvergne (; ; or ) is a cultural region in central France. It is now largely part of the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes administrative region.
Auvergne is generally regarded as conterminous with the land area of the historical Province of Auvergne, which was dissolved in 1790, and with the now-defunct administrative region of Auvergne, which existed from 1956 to 2015.
