The climate of Figueres (Spain)
Figueres is a small town located in the northeastern part of Spain in
the Catalonia region in the Girona province. The city is
internationally known for the Teatro y Museo de Dali or Dali museum.
During the 1970s an old theater was converted to a museum. Nowadays
this museum is among the best visited museums in Spain. Dali played an
active role in the refurbishment of the museum in his birthplace. In
the vicinity of the museum the tomb of Dali can be found. During his
last years Dali lived in the museum. Another attraction in Figueres is
the Catell de Santa Ferran. Figueres has a Mediterranean climate
strongly influenced by the Mediterranean Sea despite its location in
the interior. The Pyrenees also have a strong influence on the climate
of Figueres. Because of its northerly location temperatures are
slightly lower here than in other places in Spain. During the summer
average daytime temperatures are around 27 degrees Celsius (80.6
degrees Fahrenheit). During the winter temperatures are around 15
degrees Celsius (59.0 degrees Fahrenheit). During the winter it may be
cold during the night, subzero temperatures are not uncommon.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression
of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain
period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather,
extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate
information for each month of the year:
