Preci is a comune (municipality) in the Province of Perugia in the Italian region Umbria, located about 60 km southeast of Perugia. It is one of I Borghi più belli d'Italia ("The most beautiful villages of Italy").[3]
It is a medieval burg (13th century) developed inside a fortress, which was almost entirely destroyed by an earthquake in 1328.
Preci borders the following municipalities: Castelsantangelo sul Nera, Cerreto di Spoleto, Norcia, Visso.
The old centre of Preci was badly damaged[4] in the October 2016 Central Italy Earthquakes.
As at July 2018, the old centre of Preci is entirely closed off to visitors pending reconstruction work.
