Province of Girona

The province extends from the Pyrenees mountains to the Mediterranean Sea, encompassing 222 municipalities across 5,910 square kilometers of diverse landscapes and territories.

The Provincial Deputation of Girona, established in 1822, transformed the region's governance structure by introducing local administrative management for its constituent municipalities.

The province maintains two official languages, Catalan and Spanish, reflecting its position within Catalonia and its connection to broader Spanish linguistic traditions.

The Mediterranean coastal area includes multiple beach destinations along the Costa Brava, while the northern region offers winter sports facilities in the Pyrenees.

The municipality of Llívia functions as a Spanish exclave within French territory, creating an unusual administrative arrangement in the province's northern border.
