Villespy is a French commune located in the northwest of the Aude department in the Occitania region of Southern France.

Historically and culturally, the commune is part of the Lauragais, the former "Land of Cockaigne," associated with both the cultivation of pastel (a dye plant) and the abundance of agricultural production, earning it the title of the "granary of Languedoc." Experiencing a Mediterranean climate, Villespy is drained by the streams of Tenten, Migaronne, Rec de Riplou, and another watercourse. The commune is notable for its natural heritage, including a natural area of ecological, faunal, and floristic interest.
