Spain has experienced its three most severe wildfires since 1961 within the past two years, according to data from the General Statistics on Forest Fires (EGIF). The most recent fire in the Ávila region, northwest of Madrid, burned over 50,000 hectares and is now the largest wildfire in the country's modern history. This follows two other major fires in 2025 and 2026, which together account for the top three largest wildfires in Spain's recorded history.

Historical comparisons show that while earlier large fires existed, none matched the scale of these recent incidents.
