About the Association

The Association of the Most Beautiful Villages in Spain, which already has 122 unique locations, was born out of the conviction and need to make the world aware of the wonderful villages that dot the Spanish landscape.

Its objective is to promote small municipalities, preferably rural ones, grouped under the same quality brand, through promotional activities and cultural events both inside and outside Spain.

This network encompasses places of great beauty and personality, steeped in history and culture, villages marked by tradition that travelers can enjoy as they explore their streets and mingle with their inhabitants.

The Most Beautiful Villages in Spain brand is a benchmark of prestige and quality at a national and international level. The initiative is based on the French model Les Plus Beaux Villages de France and is part of the Federation of the Most Beautiful Villages in the World.
