La Pobla de Benifassà is a small town in the Valencian Community of Spain. It is located in a special area called Baix Maestrat. This area is like a district or region within the larger Valencian Community.
The town is part of a historical region known as Tinença de Benifassà. Many villages in this area have very few people living there now. This is because many people moved away in the late 1900s to find work in bigger cities.
