The Priory of St. Cosmas (French: Prieuré de Saint-Cosme) or the Priory of Ronsard is a former priory built upon an island in the river Loire at La Riche near Tours in Touraine, founded in the 11th century and dedicated to St. Cosmas. The site features a museum dedicated to the French poet Ronsard, who spent the last twenty years of his life among the Canons Regular there. In 1092 the priory was founded on the site of a 7th-century oratory by a community of Augustinian Canons Regular to accommodate pilgrims on the way to the shrine of St. James of Campostela in Spain, a purpose it served up to the 18th century.
