Prémery () is a commune in the Nièvre department in central France. It is in the heart of the Nivernais.
==History== In World War II, Prémery was a hub for Maquis activity within the French Resistance. On 9 August 1944, German occupying forces tortured to death Jean Sanson de Sansal in the forest of Prémery, a Maquisard who refused to lead them to the Maquis hideout.
