Caventou (crater)

Caventou is a tiny lunar impact crater located in the western part of the Mare Imbrium. It is a circular, cup-shaped formation surrounded by the lunar mare. Prior to being renamed by the IAU in 1976, it had the designation La Hire D, being associated with the mountain Mons La Hire to the southeast. However, the name Caventou appeared on some maps as early as 1974.
