Fort of Graça is the most important fort around the city of Elvas and a beautiful example of military architecture of the XVIII century.
This is the most important fort around the town of Elvas and a spectacular example of 18th-century military architecture. The fortress is recognizable by the yellow governor's house on top. Construction of the fort began in 1763 and was completed in 1792. It took 6,000 men, 4,000 animals and 120,000 gold coins to build the ingenious system. Ramparts, bastions, ditches, tunnels and loopholes harmoniously complicate the whole.
