Closest one to me at the moment (in Pilsen, Czech Republic): Alban Hills [1]

"Fun" facts:

- it less than 30km from Rome, Italy

- it emits enough CO2 that it occasionally kills livestock

- last eruption is thought to be around 5000 BCE

- a magma chamber is believed to be building up 5-6km below the surface
