Government of Cantabria, government of the autonomous community of Cantabria (Spain)
The Government of Cantabria is the autonomous region's main administrative body and is headquartered in Santander on Spain's northern coast. The building on Calle Peña Herbosa houses multiple departments including health, education, environment, and finance, where officials manage regional affairs and public services.
The Government of Cantabria was established in the early 1980s when the region became an autonomous community within Spain. Previously, the territory was managed under different administrative structures, including a special council during the Spanish Civil War, until it evolved into its current form following Spain's transition to democracy.
Visitors and residents can contact the government by phone, online portals, or in person at the offices in Santander to get information about services and permits. Citizens can access transparency portals online to view information about budgets, projects, and public meetings.
