{{about|the town|the kingdom of the same name|Baron (kingdom)}}
'''Baron''', also known as '''Baron City'''<ref>''Final Fantasy IV Advance'' Nintendo Player's Guide, page 30.</ref> and the '''Town of Baron''' in the original [[Super Nintendo]] release, is a town and a starting location of ''[[Final Fantasy IV]]''. It is the titular landmark location of the kingdom named [[Baron (kingdom)|Baron]], and is ruled by a monarchy in [[Baron Castle]]. Baron is home to [[Cecil Harvey|Cecil]], [[Rosa Joanna Farrell|Rosa]], [[Cid Pollendina|Cid]], and their families.

==History==
At the start of their journey, Cecil and [[Kain Highwind|Kain]] are given a package to deliver to [[Mist]]. They go to Baron and purchase supplies from the [[Item Shop]] for the journey ahead.

After Cecil becomes a [[Paladin]], he and three other party members ([[Palom]], [[Porom]], and [[Tellah]]) return from [[Mysidia]] to Baron via the [[Devil's Road]]. They find [[Yang Fang Leiden|Yang]] in the bar, but he attacks the party because he had lost some of his memory after being attacked by a [[Leviathan]]. After defeating Yang, he regains his senses and joins the party. He also gives them the Baron Key, which the party use to open the entrance to [[Old Waterway]] and infiltrate Baron Castle. The key also allows them to access the shared [[Weapon Shop|Weapon]] & [[Armor Shop]]s building.

Once the party has defeated [[Cagnazzo]] in Baron Castle, peace is restored to Baron.

==Trivia==
*In the North American ''Final Fantasy II'' release and ''Final Fantasy IV Easy-Type'', Baron's map was slightly changed from the original Super Famicom release, mainly to move the bottom-left building slightly higher so that it is directly left of the Item Shop. As a result, the lower-left wall was slightly expanded.
