The old town has some interesting monuments, the most important being the Igreja (church) de Jesus.
This church is considered to be the first Manueline building and boasts an impressive doorway.
Its twisted granite pillars were hewn and transported from nearby Arrabida Natural Park.
The Igreja de Santa Maria da Graca was originally built in the 13th
century. Rebuilt in the 16th century, it contains beautifully carved altars
and 18th century azulejos (tiles).
The museum Michel Giacometti has a fascinating collection of ethnic
tools once used by local artisans.
Setubal offers a rare opportunity to take a boat trip on the Sado estuary to watch the bottle nosed dolphins.
Twenty kilometres from Setubal is the Arrabida Natural Park which boasts a spectacular granite ridge and is a haven for wildlife.
A trip to Vila Fresca de Azeitao is a must for wine connoisseurs.
A tour of the wine vaults at Jose Maria is recommended and includes a free tasting of the locally produced Muscatel.

(tiles) relating to the life of St. Philip.
