Some craters are caused by meteorites; for example, the Barringer Meteor Crater near Winslow, AZ, USA is probably the best known big crater.
But craters can be caused by volcanoes or by explosions as well. Although, to be honest, a meteor crater is caused by an explosion, too, when kinetic energy is converted abruptly into heat.
