The last eruption of this snowy, two-peaked volcano (the highest in Turkey) occurred in 1840, when a huge earthquake also caused a landslide. In the Bible, Ararat is where Noah’s Ark landed.

In the south of Italy, near Naples, lies Campi Flegrei, a volcanic area that’s home to Solfatara, a volcano that last erupted in 1158. Though considered dormant, the volcano does regularly release sulfurous gases through the many fumaroles on its floor.
