Sant Martí d'Empúries is a beautiful medieval town where a good part of the medieval wall is still preserved, as well as the church of Sant Martí, built in 1538. Next to the remains of the castle is the Casa Forestal, style modernist, which contrasts with medieval architecture.

Sant Martí d’Empúries, a medieval neighbourhood dependent on L’Escala, is one of the oldest settlements in Catalonia, inhabited since the 9th century BC. It was a peninsula and one of the most important Mediterranean ports thanks to trade with Phoenicians, Punic and Greeks. Until 1064 it was the seat of the county of Empúries, and still preserves part of its medieval wall. The church of Sant Martí (1538) was built on a pre-Romanesque temple from the year 926, and also stands out the Casa Forestal, in modernist style, headquarters of the Iberia Graeca foundation. Opposite it are the remains of the old castle, which inspired Víctor Mora for Captain Trueno. Its narrow streets and the Plaza Mayor offer a charming atmosphere with restaurants and local cuisine. In addition, the Empúries promenade connects Sant Martí with L’Escala, allowing you to discover the beaches of Empúries, the Greco-Roman site and the Moll Grec, in an environment full of history and beauty
