Riom, Administrative commune in Puy-de-Dôme, France

Located 13 kilometers northeast of Clermont-Ferrand, Riom extends across 32 square kilometers at an elevation of 337 meters above sea level.

Originally named Ricomagus during Roman times, Riom functioned as the capital of Auvergne province until the French Revolution, housing the residence of Auvergne dukes.

The municipal library contains 90,000 items, including medieval manuscripts, while sixteen classified historical monuments demonstrate the architectural legacy of the region.

The town hall, situated at 23 Rue de l'Hôtel de Ville, provides administrative services from Monday to Friday between 8:00 AM and 5:30 PM.

Two public squares feature large fountains dedicated to Louis Desaix, contributing to the urban landscape that earned Riom its Ville d'Art et d'Histoire designation.
