Guarnició fronterera i fortificacions de la ciutat d'Elvas

Guarnició fronterera i fortificacions de la ciutat d'Elvas és el nom donat al conjunt històric-cultural classificat com a Patrimoni Mundial de la UNESCO el 2012, localitzat a la ciutat d'Elvas, a Portugal. El lloc classificat va ser fortificat de forma extensiva entre els segles XVII i XIX, i representa el major sistema de fortificacions abaluartades del món. A l'interior de les muralles, la ciutat inclou grans casernes i d'altres construccions militars així com esglésies i monestirs. Elvas conserva vestigis que es remunten al segle X, però les seves fortificacions daten de l'època del restabliment de la independència de Portugal el 1640. Diverses de les fortificacions, dissenyades pel jesuïta neerlandès João Piscásio, representen el millor exemple conservat de fortificacions d'origen a l'escola militar holandesa.
