Halkyn is a village in North Wales near Mold, Flintshire and situated between Pentre Halkyn, Northop and Rhosesmor. The village has a Post Office, a church, a public house and a library, but few other facilities.

Halkyn is one of the "ancient parishes" of Flintshire, originally comprising the townships of Hendrefigillt, Lygan y Llan and Lygan y Wern. Today the village is the most well-known of the area and certainly the oldest, more than 1,000 years old, as it was recorded in the Domesday Book.
