}}Piedra (formerly, Del Piedra and Delpiedra) is an unincorporated community in Fresno County, California.[1] It is located on the south bank of the Kings River {{convert|23|mi|km}} east of Fresno,[2] at an elevation of 538 feet (164 m).[1]

In 1911, the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad built a branch line to a nearby quarry and bestowed the name ("Piedra" is Spanish for "rock" or "stone").[2]

The Delpiedra post office operated from 1920 to 1943.[2] The Piedra post office was established in 1949.[2]

Pine Flat Dam is located approximately 2.5 miles northeast of Piedra.
