30 Doradus is a giant H II region in the Large Magellanic Cloud (Bode 1801). It is the nearest extragalactic giant H II region and the location of active star formation. The complex nature of this extended region provides an excellent opportunity to investigate the impact of massive stars on the structure of the interstellar medium. Specifically the presence of supernova remnants (SNRs) is expected to play an important role.
