The Elvira Gate is an arch located in Granada, and it was the main gate in it, and it was built in the Maghreb era by Yusuf I to protect the city from invaders, and the Catholic Kings occupied the city shortly after, as a procession walked through the gate as a symbol of victory, Centuries later, Napoleon's forces invaded Granada and destroyed the gateway and the adjoining fortress, of which only the pass remained, becoming one of the many fine examples of Arab architecture in the city.
