The H.E.S.S. view of the Galactic Centre region

Measurements by High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.) provide the first sensitive map of very-high-energy (VHE) γγ-ray emission from the central few hundred parsecs of our galaxy. These observations are a valuable tool to understand the acceleration and propagation of energetic particles near the Galactic Centre (GC). The data reveal the existence of three discrete VHE γγ-ray sources and the presence of diffuse γγ-ray emission correlated with dense molecular clouds. The H.E.S.S. view of the GC region is reviewed, and possible counterparts of H.E.S.S. sources are discussed.
