Cabanes (Valencian pronunciation: [kaˈβanes]), also known as Cabanes de l'Arc, is a village and municipality located in the comarca of Plana Alta, in the province of Castellón, Valencian Community, Spain.
Cabanes is located near the old Roman road Via Augusta, where an arch from the 2nd century AD can be seen. It seems it was built as a commemorative arch, but there is not any inscription to confirm this.
In the municipality stands the old settlement of Albalat dels Ànecs, where several fortified buildings still remain.
