Magnificent and grandiose building on Praça de Elvas on a large hill to the north. Remarkable example of 19th century military architecture. XVIII and considered by many historians to be one of the most powerful bastioned fortresses in the world, the Graça or Lippe Fort is still original for its design and location.
The Fort of Graça is really impressive! You really get lost in it! This mighty building is particularly impressive from the air! Please do not confuse this with the Santa Luzia, this is located south of the city.
