The aim of the study is to determine the functional types of rural areas of the Lubelskie region and the characteristics of the functional structure depending on the value class represented by the area. In the light of the study the functional structure of rural areas of the region should be considered very diverse and dominated by units representing agricultural functions. The study revealed that the most valuable natural areas were characterized by a lower share of communes included in the agricultural and mixed functional types and a larger share of communes with a dominant forestry function and a major contribution to shaping and protection of the natural landscape and tourism.
