Best Minecraft 1.21 Java Village Seeds

These seeds are all you need to start a relaxing, low-key village life in Minecraft Java.

Starting Trials

Seed: 2990297396645658645

A combination of a Taiga Village, a ruined Nether portal, and a Trial Chamber await you in this world. The ruined portal is particularly unique because it has merged with one of the homes in the village. It blocks the door of the home, but you'll still find a bed in the house and plenty of obsidian in the portal itself. When you feel like taking on an extra challenge, either rebuild the portal to go to the Nether or visit the Trial Chamber structure beneath the village.

Key Locations and Coordinates
Taiga Village: 35, -2
Trial Chambers: 25, -20, -9

Tiny Village Trails

Seed: 5412578000670096005

Despite the many paths created by this village, it actually only has a single home and a few small farms. While it's not as useful for survival, the structure of this village makes it perfect for players wanting to create their own unique town! Build houses and other structures along the preexisting paths. If you need help with resources, there are a plethora of structures hidden in the ocean around the island that will give you the boost you need.

Key Locations and Coordinates
Cold Ocean Ruin Cluster: -932, -161
Plains Village: -1,025, -234
Underwater ruined Nether portal: -1,270, -345

Iron Villages

Seed: 7040093665601660210

Visiting these two villages will provide you with an iron pickaxe, a few pieces of iron armor, and plenty of food and other resources. All of this equipment will help you safely explore the nearby caves while gathering ores and rare minerals. If you're looking for a survival seed with a comfortable start and the potential for harder adventures, this is a great one to use.

Plains Village 1: -473, 579
Plains Village 2: -520, 386

Neighboring Island

Seed: 1539682405972721628

Life on the mainland isn't so bad with neighbors like these. This island is only a short boat ride from Spawn and is home to a thriving Taiga Village. Make sure to explore the entirety of the island as there is at least one home you won't find by looking at the front of the island. The surrounding waters contain multiple shipwrecks, Cold Ocean Ruin Clusters, and Ocean Monuments. Spend your nights at the Village and your days exploring the exciting ocean structures.

Taiga Village Island: -304, 0
Shipwreck: -381, -146

Lava Beach Village

Seed: -281339344263338159

One home in this village is dangled precariously over a lava pond. If the sparks from the lava fly too high, it's sure to catch on fire. The rest of the homes in the village are much safer, thankfully. Its position on the beach makes the village a good spot for safe fishing.

Key Locations and Coordinates
Lava Beach Village: -553, -476

Christmas in July

Seed: -1552538849064238433

This seed is all about splitting things in half in a visually stunning way. The main village in this seed is a Plains Village split in half between regular Beach and Snowy Beach biomes. You'll find a Blacksmith here, which gives you a great headstart in this wide new world. A shipwreck in the distance is fittingly split between jungle and dark oak wood. Since it's technically two shipwrecks smashed together, you can uncover an extra treasure chest or two hidden inside!

Key Locations and Coordinates
Christmas in July Village: 35, 148
Split Shipwreck: 51, 302

Lush Taiga Village on the Beach

Seed: -6235858477870975953

Taiga Villages tend to blend into their surroundings, making them both harder to spot and a little less visually exciting to find. This one stands above the rest because it crosses a Lush Cave ravine and rests to the right of a large beach. A small waterfall leads into the cave to help you explore quickly. However, you'll need to be careful as the cave itself is huge and filled with mobs.

Key Locations and Coordinates
Lush Taiga Village: 339, 345
Lush Ravine: 319, 308

Mountains High and Caverns Low

Seed: 5188011330906297323

Plains Villages are one of the easiest structures to find and can be very helpful in getting gear and other useful resources. This Plains Village is located on the opposite side of the mountain this world begins on. After traversing the mountain and visiting the village, use its resources to explore the large cavern beneath it. Luckily, a few waterfalls coming down the mountain can be used to enter and exit the cave without fear.

Key Locations and Coordinates
Mountain Village above Cavern: 205, 154

Beneath the Unstable Cliff

Seed: 3539899100955452729

These villagers must be thrill-seekers due to the placement of their village. They live precariously beneath a large, unbalanced cliff that looks as if it could fall at any moment. To make things even more crazy, one of the villagers has built his home above a pool of lava! If you love adventure, I highly recommend moving in with these villagers.

Key Locations and Coordinates
Floating Island: Spawn
Plains Village: 16, 192

Drop Down Village

Seed: -6725369520753494353

This Plains Village has been nearly split in half by a cavern appearing in its center. Several villagers and Iron Golems are trapped within it fighting against the monsters inside. The cavern drops quickly down to deepslate with a mineshaft at the bottom of its main tunnel. Players will also find amethyst geodes and plenty of other ores while exploring the cave.

Key Locations and Coordinates
Plains Village: Spawn
Mineshaft: -24, -31, 52
Amethyst Geode: 54, -24, 89

Best Minecraft 1.21 Bedrock Village Seeds

These Bedrock Village seeds are perfect for starting a survival world yourself, but they're also great for introducing the game to friends and family, especially for console players!

Zombie Mountain Village

Seed: -5250417527492330712

Not every village seed is meant to be easy. This one takes the convenience of a village near Spawn and ups the danger level by turning its inhabitants into zombies! If you want to get the most out of the village, you'll need to cure the villagers to transform them from their zombified state back into regular Illagers. If you use it well, the ruined portal on the same mountain as the village can be used to speed up the curing process.

Key Locations and Coordinates
Ruined Nether Portal: 239, -298
Zombie Plains Village: 268, -381

Ice Mountain Village

Seed: 2811560199523685026

On the surface, this Plains Village is a mountainside refuge that will keep you safe from hostile mobs like Pillagers and the Drowned. However, digging into the ground beneath the village reveals that it is located above a Trial Chamber! Use the village's Iron Golems to take down randomly generated Pillagers to gather Ominous Potions. Once you've gathered enough, bring them with you into the chamber to unlock the special Ominous Vaults and receive unimaginable treasures.

Key Locations and Coordinates
Ice Mountain Village: 169, 638
Trial Chamber: 103, -29, 649
Ruined Portal: 338, 719

Sunny Meadows

Seed: -599696079251312033

Sunflowers dot the Meadow Mountain this Plains Village rests on. In the distance is another Plains Village, multiple lakes, and a bright Cherry Grove biome. The combination of these makes the world appear blissfully peaceful. However, everything is not as tranquil as it seems. The village's neighbor, a Pillager Outpost, has begun attacking them and anyone who comes too close. You'll need to kick them off the mountain to start your cozy Minecraft life.

Key Locations and Coordinates
Plains Village: 190, 252
Pillager Outpost: 55, 279
Giant Dripstone Cave: 25, 232

Savanna Mountain

Seed: -7260228063183030219

This tall Savanna Mountain is home to a large village. Several waterfalls pour down the mountain, giving you an easy way to get up and down. Two of the nearby mountains hide Ancient Cities filled with treasure. You're guaranteed to find at least one of their special Armor Trims or Music Discs since each has many treasure chests.

Key Locations and Coordinates
Savanna Mountain Village: -451, 219
Ancient City 1: -216, -42, 23
Ancient City 2: -664, -51, 184

Lone Savanna Islanders

Seed: -2495088289972663857

The only sign of life on this island is the Savanna Village at its center. Around the village are Savanna, Plains, and Mangrove Swamp biomes. The Plains biome will generate farm animals, the Mangrove Swamp will be a good place to fish, and the Savanna is the perfect place to build a home alongside the village.

Key Locations and Coordinates
Savanna Village: 829, -243
Ruined Portal: 933, -275

Pumpkin Town

Seed: -650948901358033296

The first thing players see when they enter this world is the wall of one of the villager's houses. After wandering through the village, you'll find pumpkins scattered absolutely everywhere. This, combined with the darker color palette of the world, makes it perfect for a Halloween or general fall-inspired world. As a bonus, the beach next to the town is home to turtles! Use them to craft a Turtle Shell helmet so you can explore the ocean for buried treasure and other goodies.

Key Locations and Coordinates
Pumpkin Town: Spawn
Buried Treasure: -104, 42, 8

Ice Valley

Seed: -4589407449396482135

The dark wood and bright lanterns of this Snowy Village contrast nicely with the frozen river and layers of snow it was built on. If you look further down the river, you'll see a towering Pillager Outpost built against the side of one of the river valley's walls. It's far enough not to threaten the villagers but close enough to use for farming resources whenever you need them.

Key Locations and Coordinates
Snowy Village: 361, 216
Pillager Outpost: 202, 277

Adventurer's Desert Start

Seed: -1688199206313970766

Deserts are a great place to start if you're looking for new adventures in Minecraft. In this one, you'll find a lively Desert Village built around a Desert Temple and a Trial Chambers structure underground nearby. Start your adventure by visiting the village for supplies. From there, take a quick trip to the Desert Temple in hopes of grabbing diamonds for new equipment. Afterward, you'll be well-equipped to take on the chambers.

Key Locations and Coordinates
Desert Village: -181, 319
Desert Temple: -198, 347
Trial Chambers: -263, -17, 200

Mountain Village, Towering Mansion

Seed: 857385762816198781

This seed has three of the best structures players can explore in close proximity. Firstly, the mountain the world starts on has both a Plains Village and an Ancient City. In the distance, players will find both a Woodland Mansion and a Pillager Outpost. These structures will give you hours of adventure and plenty of loot to go with it.

Key Locations and Coordinates
Mountain Plains Village: -231, 218
Woodland Mansion: -550, 345
Pillager Outpost: -714, 760

Taiga Village Trails and Trials

Seed: -2472678899896392284

This seed has the three T's that make any survival world worth playing— a Taiga Village, a Trail Ruins, and a Trial Chambers! I recommend starting with the village, then spending some time excavating the ruins. Once you've leveled up and improved your gear, dig down at the provided coordinates to fall straight into the Trial Chambers.

Key Locations and Coordinates
Taiga Village: 220, 196
Trail Ruins: 225, 115
Trial Chambers: 174, -7, 258
