Parishes of Andorra

Parishes of Andorra

Andorra consists of seven communities known as parishes (catalan: parròquies, singularndash parròquia). Until relatively recently, it had only six parishes; the seventh, Escaldes-Engordany, was created in 1978.

Some parishes have a further territorial subdivision. Ordino, La Massana and Sant Julià de Lòria are subdivided into "quarts" (quarters), while Canillo is subdivided into "veïnats" (neighborhoods). Those mostly coincide with villages, which are found in all parishes.
