Villanueva de la Serena has launched a citizen card that its residents can request starting June 25. The city is becoming a leader in Smart City initiatives.
In an exciting event held on May 30, Villanueva de la Serena took a significant step toward modernization and connectivity with the presentation of the Citizen Card. This innovative tool, developed in collaboration with Zitycard and Telefónica, promises to transform the lives of residents by offering an integrated solution for accessing municipal services.

This was presented by the Councilor for E-administration, Mónica Calurano..
