Castilla is a town located in the Chacabuco Partido in the province of Buenos Aires, Argentina. It is located along National Route 7.

Castilla was founded on March 1, 1885 following the construction of a railroad through the area.[2] At its peak, Castilla had around 3,000 residents.[3] The town suffered a considerable loss in population, around 75%, after long-standing rail service to the town ended in the 1990s.[4][5]
