Pompierre (French pronunciation: [pɔ̃pjɛʁ] ⓘ) is a commune in the Vosges department, Grand Est, Northeastern France.
The village lies on the border with the adjacent Haute-Marne department 10 kilometres (6 mi) south of Neufchâteau and 13 kilometres (8 mi) across country from Robécourt which is the nearest access point for the A31, Lorraine's principal south-north highway.
Pompierre (formerly Pont de Pierre) is traversed by the Mouzon River which is here crossed by the bridge from which it takes its name.
