Sutrieu was a small village, also known as a commune, located in eastern France. It was part of the Ain department, which is like a county in France.
On January 1, 2019, Sutrieu joined with some other nearby villages. They all came together to form a new, larger commune called Valromey-sur-Séran. This means Sutrieu is no longer a separate commune on its own.
