The Republic of San Marino is divided into nine Script error: No such module "Lang". (lit.Template:Thinsp'castles'), which constitute its first-level administrative divisions.[1] Each castello is governed by a Captain of the Castle (Template:Langx) and a Castle Council (Script error: No such module "Lang".), elected every five years.[2]

Like Italian Script error: No such module "Lang"., each Script error: No such module "Lang". has a capital (Script error: No such module "Lang".), with other population centers sorted into Script error: No such module "Lang". (equivalent to Italian Script error: No such module "Lang".).[2] The country contains 44 Script error: No such module "Lang". (sing. Script error: No such module "Lang".), the lowest administrative unit beneath its Script error: No such module "Lang"..[1] Valdragone and Cailungo are divided into two curazie each, labelled Script error: No such module "Lang". and Script error: No such module "Lang"..

The Captain of the Castle performs functions broadly comparable to those of a mayor and serves as the head of the castello. Candidates must present an electoral list in accordance with the 1994 law and may not simultaneously serve as members of the Grand and General Council. The captain’s term of office is five years. The officeholder represents the castello and presides over and convenes the Castle Council, implements adopted resolutions, officiates civil marriage ceremonies, participates with voting rights in the urban planning commission, and assists citizens and local entities in administrative procedures before public offices.

Under Act No. 10 of 16 March 1925, the nine Captains of the Castle were appointed by the Grand and General Council. This system was reformed by Law No. 75 of 30 November 1979, which introduced the direct election of Captains of the Castle by universal suffrage. Newly elected captains take the oath of office at the Palazzo Pubblico in the City of San Marino before the Captains Regent.[3] Since the 2020 local elections, foreign residents who have lived in San Marino for at least ten years have also been entitled to vote in elections for Captains of the Castle.

A law adopted in 2020 established the number of members of each Castle Council according to population size: six councillors in castelli with fewer than 2,500 inhabitants and eight councillors in those with 2,500 inhabitants or more.[4] The councils perform functions broadly comparable to those of municipal councils in Italy and exercise deliberative, consultative, promotional, supervisory, and administrative responsibilities concerning local services within the territory and population of the castello.
