Haljala (German: Haljall) is a small borough (Estonian: alevik) in Lääne-Viru County, in northern Estonia.

It is located about 10 km northwest of the town of Rakvere, by the Tallinn–Narva (Tallinn–Saint Petersburg) road (part of E20).

It was initially built on an important crossing of Tallinn–Narva road with a road from Rakvere to the northern coast, particularly to the Toolse harbour.

The present stone church was built in the end of 14th century.
