Sainte des Prez was a trouvère probably from Le Prés in La Ferté-sous-Jouarre and active in the 13th century. Nothing is known about her beyond what can be deduced from her name. She shares her toponymic surname with Gui des Prés, named in a chansonnier from Siena as the composer of a song elsewhere attributed to Perrin d'Angicourt and who himself may be identical with Guy des Prés, bishop of Noyon from 1272 to 1296. In 1581, Claude Fauchet included Sainte des Prez in his catalogue of French poets from before 1300.
