Castelló d'Empúries is a town and municipality in the Alt Empordà in Girona, Catalonia, and lies 9 km east of Figueres.
In 1079, Castelló d'Empúries became the capital of the Empúries county due to the previous capital, Sant Martí d'Empúries, being too easily sacked by pirates. 1325-1341 saw a period of large expansion of this capital town, which ultimately ceased being the capital once the county joined the Crown of Aragon and Catalonia in 1385.
The old town is somewhat dwarfed by the neighboring urbanisation of Empuriabrava.
