Flecchia is a frazione (and a parish) of the municipality of Pray, in Piedmont, northern Italy.
In former times the village was named Flechia or Felicetum Libicorum.
Flecchia in 1305 was severely damaged by the followers of fra Dolcino, which set fire to it.
The local parish of Sant'Ambrogio was established in 1438.
Since 1928 it was a separate comune (municipality).
