There’s no better way to start a survival game in Minecraft than with a nice village at spawn. In this guide, I’ll provide you with a list of the top 15 best Minecraft seeds with villages that appear at spawn or very close to it.
Minecraft: Top 15 Best Seeds With Villages
Dripstone Cherry Village
- Seed: 6788185563703156763
- Version: Java
- Spawn: 16, -44
- Biomes: Cherry Grove, Dripstone Cave, Plains
A Dripstone Cave cuts through this Cherry Grove hill, turning it into the perfect backdrop for the Plains Village on top of it. Explore the cave during the day to mine rare minerals and return to the village at night to rest peacefully. If life starts to feel a little mundane, return to the mountain near Spawn to explore an Ancient City.
| Important Locations and their Coordinates |
|---|
| Plains Village: -159, -223 |
| Ancient City: 224, -45, -155 |
Ancient Cavern Village
- Seed: -1249580588507998811
- Version: Bedrock
- Spawn: 7, 23
- Biomes: Deep Dark, Plains, Taiga
Half of this Plains Village has fallen into a cavern, leaving them at risk of being overrun by monsters. Luckily, the cavern is relatively easy to light up since it’s open to the surface and does not go deep underground. You can use oak or spruce wood from the nearby forests to turn this cave into a personal mineshaft! The villages will spawn in Iron Golems, so you won’t have to worry about defending it yourself.
| Important Locations and their Coordinates |
|---|
| Plains Village: 185, -349 |
| Ancient City: 130, -42, -346 |
Coastal Meadow Village with Ancient City
- Seed: -9001292676303910294
- Version: Java
- Spawn: 36, 0
- Biomes: Deep Dark, Grove, Lush Cave, Meadow
This village is on the side of a Meadow Mountain next to the coast. Closer to the coast is a ruined Nether portal, but what’s most important is the cave beneath the village. It starts out as a Lush Cave and drops immediately into a Deep Dark biome with an Ancient City. The cave’s opening is very wide, so part of the Ancient City is visible from the surface.
| Important Locations and their Coordinates |
|---|
| Plains Village: 203, 99 |
| Ruined Nether portal: 276, 21 |
| Lush Cave to Ancient City: 151, 30, 120 |

Desert Village’s Desert Temple
- Seed: 242075221548094949
- Version: Bedrock
- Spawn: -28, 48
- Biomes: Badlands, Desert
A Desert Temple has merged with two of the buildings in this Desert Village. To enter the home, you’ll need to enter the Temple from either the top or side entrance. The tower on the left side of the temple is only accessible by building up to it from the side or directly digging into it. With that in mind, this combination of structures is the perfect foundation for a survival base.
| Important Locations and their Coordinates |

| Desert Village: 5, 88 |
| Desert Temple: 74, 119 |
Three Meadow Villages

The mountain this world begins by is home to a single Plains Village. After gathering materials from it, walk south to find a Plains Village with a Blacksmith and a Cherry Grove. The final village in the area will be east of the Cherry Grove biome. If you enjoy exploring underground, you’ll be happy to know there are multiple mineshafts in the area. Additionally, the second village is home to a Dripstone Cave that will help you get your mining adventure started the right way.

- Version: Bedrock
- Spawn: 0, 0
- Biomes: Mangrove Swamp, Plains, Savanna
If you’re looking to speedrun Minecraft, this seed has a pretty good start. The world begins in a Mangrove Swamp. Walk to the southwest to find a Savanna Village with a Blacksmith next to a ruined Nether portal. While the village looks basic at first, it contains a Blacksmith whose chests holds an iron pickaxe and eight obsidian blocks! Use these items to rebuild the Nether portal next to the village and enter the Nether within a few days of starting your world.

Here’s a seed that gives you easy access to the Nether alongside two villages. The first village you’ll find is an Acacia Village with a Blacksmith, which will help you quickly craft weapons and armor to take on the Nether. While the Plains Village nearby doesn’t have the same resources, it does have plenty of food, farms, and other necessities.

- Version: Bedrock
- Spawn: 0, 0
- Biomes: Beach, River, Taiga
Most Taiga Villages blend into their surroundings, making them incredibly difficult to spot. This one stands apart because it has partially generated onto a Beach biome. The dark blocks of the homes stand out from the yellow sand, making this village a beautiful sight to behold. Travel deeper into the Taiga to discover a hidden set of Trail Ruins hiding bountiful treasures.

If you’re looking for a more carefree survival world, this seed has you covered. You’ll spawn in the center of a large Plains biome with four separate Plains Villages.

- Biomes: Frozen Ocean, Snowy Beach, Stony Shore, Taiga
The location of this Taiga Village makes it special enough to earn a spot on our list of the best 15 Minecraft village seeds. It is surrounded by Stony Shores and Beach biomes, which has caused seven different chests of buried treasure to generate around it. You will need to dive underwater for most of these chests. However, the rewards they contain are worth taking on the ocean.

This world is a lucky one because it has three villages and a Pillager Outpost next to Spawn! You’ll spawn by the Plains Village, which contains a Blacksmith. I recommend starting there and traveling around to the other two villages before taking on the Pillager Outpost.

Three Plains Villages are scattered around the two snowy mountains and Cherry Grove at Spawn. The first is in the Cherry Grove biome near the entrance to a large cave. However, it is the second and third that are particularly useful. Each is located above a Trial Chamber structure, with the third also having a Blacksmith. Those looking for more challenges will find an Ancient City beneath the mountain closest to the second village.

In this seed, you’ll spawn at the base of a Stony Peaks mountain with two villages. The eastern village is closest to you, but, unfortunately, its inhabitants have been turned into zombies! You’ll have better luck getting resources from the western village instead. When you’ve finished exploring these two structures, head southwest to find a Jungle Temple and a Trial Chamber.

- Version: Bedrock
- Spawn: 0, 0
- Biomes: Badlands, River, Savanna
A Pillager Outpost has taken control of the river next to this Savanna Village. Luckily, the river slows the Pillagers’ movements, making them a little easier to defeat. Make sure to partner with the villagers and their Iron Golems to ensure your victory over the Pillagers.
