Pierce is a city in the northwest United States, located in Clearwater County, Idaho.

[5][6] On land ceded to the Nez Perce people at the Walla Walla Council in 1855 (with a 1859 treaty), the gold discovery led to significant reduction of that agreement in 1863, and the Nez Perce War in 1877.

[9] Idaho Territory was established in 1863, and the county seat moved north to the Silver Valley in Murray in 1884 (and to Wallace in 1898).

Pierce is located about 9 miles northeast of the Weippe Prairie, north of the Clearwater River canyon.

According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 0.82 square miles (2.12 km2), all of it land.
