Thousands of emergency services staff and military personnel have been working on search and rescue operations in flood-hit regions, while locals have started to clean up and assess the level of damage caused.
More rain is expected over the weekend, with a warning in place along the coastline of Huelva in the south-west, where residents are being told to stay at home.
Before and after images show the scale of damage the flash flooding and torrential rain caused. Cars were swept onto streets, train tracks and tunnels across Valencia, the worst-hit region.
A large number of those killed were on the roads, in many cases returning from work when the flash floods struck.
