Priero is a small town and comune of the Langhe, located 6 kilometres (4 mi) east of Ceva in the Province of Cuneo, Piedmont, Italy.

The original settlement, on a hill called Poggio to the south of the present village, dates from around the beginning of the second millennium.

A pieve, dedicated to the Virgin Mary, had authority over the churches at Costelnuovo, Montezemolo, Osiglia, Calizzano Murialdo and Perlo while the fortified ricetto was the seat of a viscount appointed directly by the Emperor.

The church of Santi Antonio e Giuliano, first constructed in 1494, retains its original campanile.

The rest of the building, however was demolished in the late 17th century and rebuilt in 1716 to plans by F. Gallo.
