Your Essential Guide to Useful Phone Numbers and Addresses in Girona

Navigate Girona with Confidence: Key Contacts for Visitors and Residents

Category: Girona Travel, Practical Information, Emergency Services, Local Resources, Spain Travel Tips

Visiting or living in a new city like Girona is an exciting adventure, but knowing who to call and where to go in case of need is crucial for peace of mind. At Up! Idiomes, we're not just about teaching Spanish; we're also passionate about helping you feel at home in beautiful Girona. This comprehensive guide provides essential phone numbers and addresses for emergencies, transport, tourism, and more, ensuring you're well-prepared for any situation.


Emergency Numbers: First Responders for Critical Situations

In Spain, a single, universal emergency number covers most critical situations. It's vital to know and remember this number.

  • All Emergencies (Police, Fire, Ambulance): 112

    • This is the pan-European emergency number, free to call from any phone (mobile or landline). Operators can typically connect you to services in multiple languages, including English.

    • When to call 112: If there's an immediate threat to life, property, or safety.

While 112 is the primary number, you may also encounter specific service numbers:

  • Ambulance (Urgencias Médicas): 061

  • National Police (Policía Nacional): 091

  • Local Police (Policía Local / Municipal): 092

  • Civil Guard (Guardia Civil): 062 (Primarily rural areas and highways)

  • Fire Brigade (Bomberos): 080


Healthcare: Hospitals and Pharmacies

Knowing where to go for medical assistance is paramount.

Hospitals in Girona:

Hospital Universitari de Girona Doctor Josep Trueta (Public Hospital)

  • Address: Avinguda de França, S/N, 17007 Girona

  • Phone: +34 972 94 02 00

  • Phone: +34 972 21 04 00

Pharmacies (Farmacias):

Pharmacies in Spain are easily identified by a green cross sign. For after-hours needs, look for "Farmacia de Guardia" (on-call pharmacy). These operate on a rotating schedule.

  • How to find an on-call pharmacy:

    • Look for notices on the doors of any pharmacy in Girona; they will list the nearest 24-hour or late-night pharmacy.

    • Check the official College of Pharmacists of Girona website: https://www.cofgi.org/farmacies/farmacies-de-guardia (This site is in Catalan, but look for "Farmàcies de guàrdia" or a map feature).
