Igreja de Nossa Senhora da Assunção
Manueline-style cathedral on the main square.
Castelo de Elvas
Fortified castle for defensive purposes. Provides panoramic views of the city and surroundings.
Aqueduto da Amoreira
The 16th-century aqueduct is a great architectural view - five stories in parts - and it's staggering to see how narrow was its channel.
Forte de Nossa Senhora da Graça
One of the two fortresses outside the city, with multiple layers of defensive walls. Located on a large hill it provides great views back to Elvas and over to Spain, especially from the balcony of the governor's palace.
