The '''Nure''' (Latin ''Nura'') is a small river in northern [[Italy]] ([[province of Piacenza]]). It has its source on the northern slopes of [[Mount Nero|Mt. Nero]], elevation {{convert|1754|m|ft}} above sea level, and after a course of about {{convert|75|km|mi}}&mdash;the second longest of the province&mdash;flows into the [[Po River]] {{convert|10|km|mi|0}} east of [[Piacenza]], in the vicinity of Roncarolo, a ''[[frazione]]'' of the commune of [[Caorso]], on the border with the [[Lombardy|Lombard]] commune of [[Caselle Landi]]. <ref>{{cite web |title=Nure Valley |url=https://visitpiacenza.it/en/nature-and-outdoor/nure-valley/ |website=VisitPiacenza |publisher=Visit Piacenza |access-date=10 May 2023}}</ref>

The upper valley is somewhat influenced by the [[sea air]], keeping it free of fog and strong winds, and therefore relatively pleasant even during the winter months.

In this valley, there are 79 [[fortification]]s (castles, fortified towers and dwellings, etc.)

The main villages along this river are: [[Ferriere]], [[Bosconure]], [[Cantoniera]], [[Farini d'Olmo]], [[Bettola]], [[Ponte dell'Olio]], [[Vigolzone]], [[Grazzano Visconti]], [[Podenzano]].

In addition to the main villages, other areas of the Val Nure (Valley of the Nure) are delineated by parishes, with churches located along the peaks of the mountains. One example is Cogno San Bassano, at the top of the mountain above Farini d'Olmo.

In 1799 the French [[Auvergne Regiment]] was surrendered at this river during the [[Revolutionary Wars of France|Revolutionary Wars]]. This marked the end of the [[Battle of the Trebbia (1799)|Battle of the Trebbia]], in which [[Suvorov]]'s Russian and Austrian troops won a complete victory.
