Llívia is a Spanish town in Catalonia that became an enclave surrounded by French territory due to a technicality in the 1659 Treaty of the Pyrenees, which transferred only "villages" rather than all settlements to France. The town, named after the wife of Roman Emperor Augustus, has historical significance as evidenced by its medieval castle ruins and preserved landmarks like the Esteve Pharmacy museum.

It is a Spanish enclave surrounded by the French département of Pyrénées-Orientales. It is named after Livia, the wife of Augustus and matriarch of the Julio-Claudian dynasty. Because of a technicality in the Treaty of the Pyrenees, signed in 1659, that transferred only "villages" in the Pyrenees to France, Llívia, which was a "town", remains under Spanish control. The Segre river, a tributary of the Spanish Ebro, flows through Llívia. It has a population of .
Llívia is separated from the rest of Spain by a corridor approximately wide, which includes the French communes of Ur and Bourg-Madame. This corridor is traversed by a road, owned by both France (where it is part of Route nationale 20 and RD68) and Spain (where it is part of N-154). Before the implementation of the Schengen Area in 1995, it was considered a "neutral road", a custom-free route with access for both French and Spanish people; since 1995, there have been no formal borders. The two countries share a hospital in Puigcerdà (which lies close to Llívia), as well as other local initiatives.
