Llivia

Llivia occupies a high section of the Cerdanya valley in Catalonia’s eastern Pyrenees. Although surrounded by French territory, it is a Spanish municipality: the Treaty of the Pyrenees in 1659 transferred surrounding villages to France while Llivia retained its status as a town. This unusual border history gives the settlement a distinct identity within the broad, mountain-ringed Cerdanya plain. The Museu Municipal preserves the historic Esteve Pharmacy, whose collection records centuries of pharmaceutical practice.
