This square is close to the 10th century Arab Gate, flanked by two towers and crownedwith a gallery.The Mesquita Pimentel Palace was built in the 16th century by Luís de Mesquita Pimentel, a noble knight from Elvas. The Palace hosted King Filipe II of Spain in 1580, while he lived in Elvas before leaving for Lisbon.
