Issoire (; Auvergnat: Issoire, Ussoire) is a commune in the Puy-de-Dôme department in Auvergne in central France.

== Geography == Issoire is located on the river Couze, near its confluence with the Allier, SSE of Clermont-Ferrand on the Paris-Lyon-Méditerranée railway to Nîmes. Issoire is situated in one of the fertile plains of the Petites Limagnes—basins that follow the Allier from its source in the Massif Central to the Grande Limagne north of Clermont-Ferrand and on to the Loire. thumb|220px|Saint-Austremoine church.|left
