Albalat dels Sorells is a municipality in the Valencian Community, Spain. It belongs to the province of Valencia, in the region of Huerta Norte.

The dating of the early times of the municipality goes back to the time of Arab domination. At that time the term was divided into a farmhouse with two parts: Albalat Fauquia (or above) and Albalat Acifilia (or below): the first ended up constituting the municipality. It was conquered after the famous Battle of Carraixet and the conquest of the city of Valencia in 1238, together with the entire Huerta Norte.
