Overview
Ronno is a village in the Rhône department of east-central France, located within the broader Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. As with many French villages, Ronno functions as a local community with its own identity and ties to departmental and regional administration. For administrative context see local divisions and the department page at Rhône.
Geography and landscape
The village is set in a rural landscape typical of this part of France: rolling countryside, agricultural parcels, small wooded areas and networked country roads. Its setting offers a quieter contrast to nearby urban centers and provides opportunities for walking, cycling and seasonal outdoor activities popular in rural French communes. General regional information is available via Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes.
History and built heritage
Like many settlements in the region, Ronno likely has historical roots reaching back several centuries and retains elements of local heritage — a parish church, traditional houses and a village core that reflects patterns of rural settlement. Local history and records, when available, are typically kept by municipal archives or local historical societies; a village page or municipal site can offer specifics: Ronno (local).

- a village hall or mairie for municipal affairs
- a religious building or historic landmark
- local shops or periodic markets in nearby towns
- walking paths and agricultural landscapes
