Introduction to Spain's regions

Spain has 17 regions, together with two enclaves on the North African coast and also has a special relationship with the tiny Pyrenean principality of Andorra. We include (or will soon) basic information about all these, together with a short introduction, basics about the churches and membership and, in some cases, prayer items and other comment. The tourist and other general info links are there to help you get an overview of what the region offers in terms of countryside, historic monuments, cuisine, etc.. They are not all official sites and therefore some have a wide range of advertising beyond our control!

Statistics: general population figures from the national census, November 2001; church membership for Andalusia and Extremadura from I.E.S.E.F.; and for the rest of Spain from Pocket Testament League (PTL)

Church locations and 'gaps' in the map: Table from Decision.

Looking for a church? This site could help you! www.elatrio.net/agenda/iglesias/index.htm

There are also links to sites with information, which could be of interest to plan visits, pray or otherwise learn about the regions. None of the links, of course, we are responsible for, but hope they will be more helpful than a hindrance!
