Sagunto, in Spanish, or Sagunt, in Valencian (officially: Sagunt / Sagunto, historically: Morvedre), is a city and municipality of Spain, located in the province of Valencia, Valencian Community. It belongs to the modern fertile comarca of Camp de Morvedre. It is located approximately 30 km (19 mi) north of Valencia city center and lies on the Costa de Valencia on the Mediterranean Sea.
It is best known for the remains of the ancient Iberian and Roman city of Saguntum. The siege of Saguntum in 219 BC was the trigger of the Second Punic War between the Carthaginians and the Romans.
The municipality includes three differentiated urban nuclei: Ciutat Vella (Sagunt / Sagunto), Grau Vell and Puerto de Sagunto (Port de Sagunt). Over half of the population lives in the coastal settlement of Puerto de Sagunto.
