Castro-Urdiales is a historic coastal municipality located in the autonomous community of Cantabria, northern Spain. Originally founded as a Roman colony named Flaviobriga, the town has maintained its maritime character throughout its history.
The old town features notable medieval architecture, including the Gothic Church of Santa María de la Asunción and the Castle-Lighthouse, which overlooks the Bay of Biscay. The town's cultural heritage is deeply connected to its fishing industry traditions, which have shaped local customs and festivals.
During the Middle Ages, Castro-Urdiales was an important member of the Hermandad de las Marismas, a federation of northern Spanish ports. Today, while maintaining its fishing industry, the town has evolved into a cultural center that combines its historical heritage with modern amenities. Its location between Bilbao and Santander has contributed to its development as both a residential area and tourist destination.
