Political map of Spain

Spain is divided into 17 autonomous communities and 50 provinces, which organise the country politically. Political maps show how these areas are divided and where their capitals are. Download one and you will see how Spain organises its roughly 506,000 km² under the Constitution.

Map of Spain with Autonomous Communities

Spain has 17 autonomous communities, each with its own government. Some, such as Catalonia and the Basque Country, existed before the Constitution. These communities are divided into provinces to make them easier to administer. A map that shows them in different colours will help you understand them better.

Physical map of Spain

Spain is the fourth largest country in Europe and has many geographical features such as mountains, rivers and plains. Physical maps use colours to show these areas and help you find places like the Pyrenees and the Basque Mountains. Downloading one is ideal if you want to learn more about the relief of Spain!

Map of Spain with rivers

The Ebro, which rises and flows into the sea within Spain, crosses several communities and carries a lot of water. The Tagus is the longest river of the Iberian Peninsula, and a river map shows you not only the main rivers but also their tributaries. With these maps you can learn how rivers affect the environment, for example the droughts on the central plateau.

Main rivers of Spain

  • Ebro (flows through Cantabria, Castile and León, La Rioja, Navarre, the Basque Country, Aragon and Catalonia)
  • Tagus (flows through Aragon, Madrid, Castilla-La Mancha and Extremadura and reaches the sea in Portugal)
  • Douro (crosses Castile and León and continues into Portugal)
  • Guadalquivir (crosses Andalusia)
  • Guadiana (crosses Extremadura, Castilla-La Mancha and Andalusia and also reaches Portugal)
  • Júcar (flows through Castilla-La Mancha and the Valencian Community)
  • Segura (flows through Murcia and the Valencian Community)
  • Miño (mainly in Galicia; it also forms part of the border with Portugal)

Blank map of Spain

Blank map of Spain with autonomous communities

Here is a blank map of the autonomous communities to download and print. As we said, maps without names like this one are perfect for practising what you have learned.

Blank colour map of Spain with provinces

As one more variation, I have added a blank map of Spain in colour. Use it to practise the names of the provinces.

Maps of Spain are like Russian dolls: communities, provinces and municipalities fit inside one another. Depending on what you need, each type of map shows you something different and will help you learn more about the geography or politics of the country.
