Ampriani is a commune on the eastern side of Corsica in the heart of the Pieve (religious jurisdiction) in the Serra in the canton of Moita Verde.

Access is by the D116 road from Tallone in the south-east which continues north of the village north-west to Zuani.

Ampriani is a small village of a single row of houses with a watchtower aligned on a ridge at an altitude of about 600 metres (lowest point 320 m, highest point: 749 m) overlooking the valley and almost the entire plain.

[3] [3] In the 16th century Ampriani was part of the Pieve di a Serra with two other villages which are in the current commune of Zuani.

These are the six communes in the Canton of Pietra: Canale-di-Verde, Linguizzetta, Tox, Campi, A Petra, and Chiatra (to which can be added the two hamlets of Monticchio and Ersagie, which now belong respectively to the communes of Pietra-di-Verde and Chiatra and the second to U Monte).
