5 best Minecraft seeds to find abandoned villages

Abandoned villages are one of the coolest naturally generated structures in Minecraft. These villages rarely generate, usually with zombie villagers and semi-destroyed village ruins.

These abandoned villages are generated when all the villagers are turned into zombie villagers. Many blocks that make up the houses are replaced with cobwebs and vines. These villages often include chests full of loot and are great for XP because of the presence of all the zombie villagers.

Many players will seek after these abandoned structures because of their rarity in Minecraft.

Here are a few seeds with abandoned villages.

Top 5 Minecraft seeds for abandoned villages

#1 - Abandoned Zombie Village

This seed will spawn the player in a desert biome. The abandoned village is in a nearby Savanna biome, and the player only has to walk through a short plains biome to reach it.

This village is populated with zombie villagers, so survival players should be careful while exploring the village. However, if the player travels through the village during the day, they should be relatively safe.
