The Cher ({{lang-oc|Char}}) is a river in central France, a left tributary of the Loire. It is {{convert|367.8|km|abbr=on}} long and its basin area is {{convert|13718|km2|abbr=on}}.[1] Its source is in the Creuse department, north-east of Crocq. It joins the river Loire at Villandry, west of Tours.

The river suffered a devastating flood in 1940, which damaged the Château de Chenonceau, which spans the river, and other structures along the banks. It owes its name to the pre-Indo-European root kʰar 'stone'.
