An octagonal tower in Riom bearing the clock and salamander, with a superb panoramic view of the town and surrounding area.

A former belfry and symbol of communal freedoms, the tower was built in the late 14th century. The medieval part serves as a base for the octagonal tower built during the Renaissance, which bears the clock and the salamander, emblem of King François I. Home to Riom's Pays d'art et d'histoire, it has recently been restored. New exhibits on Riom and the surrounding area have been added, including models and a relief map of the old town. After climbing 128 steps, enjoy a breathtaking view of the city and its surroundings.

Une tour à visiter
La tour beffroi ou tour de l'horloge est splendide . A l'extérieur, elle s'élève sur une base octogonale en plusieurs étages et en haut , on peut admirer la ville de Riom et la chaîne des Puys . Au rez-de-chaussée, un petit musée retrace l'histoire de la ville. Personne à l'accueil très aimable.
Tour gratuite le mercredi.

La Tour de l'horloge de Riom est situé en plein coeur de la ville, elle est magnifiquement préservée. Il est possible de la visiter et de monter à son sommet pour ainsi bénéficier d'une belle vue d'ensemble sur la ville et les alentours.

Pour un 1€ symbolique vous pourrez gravir les marches de ce campanile et admirer une fois au sommet, la superbe vue sur la ville.
Attention tout de même pour les claustrophobes, c’est étroit et en colimaçon.

1€ l'entrée, une superbe vue de la ville en haut de l'escalier en colimaçon étroit. Pas mal de panneaux d'information. Personnel accueillant.
Pleasant entrance not expensive, welcome. Models are a bit old. Very nice view of.
