Dompierre-sur-Authie (French pronunciation: [dɔ̃pjɛʁ syʁ oti], literally Dompierre on Authie; Picard: Dompierre-su-Eutie) is a commune in the Somme department in Hauts-de-France in northern France.
It is slowly depopulating like most of the countryside towns of this region, with the last shop and last hairdresser in the village having closed in the 1990s. Nevertheless, there is a strong identity and social life in the town, which retains its own primary school.
