Sant Sebastià de la Guarda is a monument site located in town of Llafranc in the Baix Emporda region of Girona province. The site consists of an Iberian archeological site from the 6th-1st centuries B.C., a 15th-century watchtower and a 19th-century lighthouse on top of a small mountain 156m above the sea.

The tower allows for panoramic views of the Costa Brava coastline and contains a small museum that details the history of the monument and Llafranc area. The archeological site consists of a small Iberian village which was first discovered between 1958–1960, with excavations taking place between 1984-1987.[1]
