Anvil is a prosperous harbor city on the Gold Coast by the Abecean Sea at the very Anvil
southwest end of Cyrodiil. It is the seat of County Anvil and it is located at the end of
the Gold Road, west of Skingrad and Kvatch.

Anvil consists of five districts: Castle Anvil, Chapelgate, Westgate, Guildgate and
Panoramic view of Anvil from the Harborside. The Redguards have had a notable influence on local architecture, which is
top of the lighthouse of a similar style to that of nearby Hammerfell. The city's graveyard is located across
the street from the Chapel of Dibella. North of the graveyard lies Benirus Manor, one
of Anvil's many stately manors. The city also houses chapters of the Fighters Guild and Mages Guild, the latter of which
specializes in Restoration.

For more information about Anvil, see the lore article.

Notes
A guaranteed magic item, the helmet Fin Gleam, can be found west of Anvil (map) (https://obmap.uesp.net/?centeron=Fin+Gleam).
The helmet is located near the small island just west of the city. Go to the high ground at the middle of the north end of the island. You will find a large rock,
with a small clearing in the grass just south of it. Stand at the south side of this rock, turn due west, walk down the hill to the water, dive in, and follow the
land to the bottom. You should find skeletal remains with the helmet.
Anvil also appears in ESO.
