Villa de la Unión (in Valencian, Vila de la Unió) was the municipality that resulted from merging Benifairó de les Valls and the neighbouring Faura between 1884 and 1906. Their urban centres, which today remain joined and even then were already close to touching, led to the merger in 1884, but conflicts between the residents of one village and the other eventually prevailed: in 1906 the two municipalities officially separated again, bringing to an end an administrative experiment lasting a little over twenty years.
