Péronne (French pronunciation: [peʁɔn]) is a commune of the Somme department in Hauts-de-France in northern France.

Its site became the resting place for St. Fursa, celebrated by the famous English historian Bede.

[3] The monastery was popular with Irish monks, among them Cellanus, whose letters to Aldhelm the Bishop of Sherborne survive.

The Museum of the Great War (known in French as the Historial de la Grande Guerre) is located in the château.

On a hill, dominating the Somme river and its lakes, Péronne was a well-fortified place during the early Middle Ages.
