Andorran History and Culture
A Glimpse of the Past
Andorra has a fascinating history dating back to medieval times. The formation of this small country is the result of centuries of disputes and agreements between the feudal lords of the valleys of Andorra and the bishops of Urgell. This unique story has left an indelible mark on Andorran culture and traditions, which can still be seen and felt today.
Culture and traditions
Andorra's culture is a vibrant mix of French and Spanish influences, with a distinctive local touch. Visitors can enjoy a wide range of traditional festivals, such as the Festa Major and Carnival, where music, dance and gastronomy play a central role. Furthermore, the Catalan language, along with Spanish and French, is an integral part of the Andorran identity.
