El Far d'Empordà

Province: Girona | Shire: Alt Empordà | Inhabitants: 545 | Extension: 9,0 Km2 | Altitude: 44 m

The municipality of Far d'Empordà is located in the middle of the Empordà plain, on the right bank of the Manol River, to the east of the region's capital, Figueres. The land is substantially flat although it has a small but significant elevation of 44m where the town center is located. Further south of the nucleus we find the neighborhood of Les Olives.

The municipality covers an area of 916.16 Ha and is bordered to the north and west by Figueres, to the east by Vila-sacra and Fortià, and to the south by Vilamalla.

The municipal term is crossed by several roads that concur to the urban nucleus and, from this, they extend by the territory of radial form. This confluence of paths that lead to Vilatenim, Vilabertran, Siurana, Vilamalla, Santa Llogía de Alguema, Vila-sacra, Fortià and Figueres surely has to do with the existence of the Castell del Far dating from the 13th century and despite being of a minor nature, it entailed a certain control of the most immediate territory.
