    Not it's fault but completely inaccessible at the moment and surrounded by white walls whilst I assume work is undertaken. Save yourself a trip until the work is done

    3 Euros to get in and freely walk around. Inside it's very nice and still some remodeling going on. But that shouldn't affect your experience.

    It is the largest among all the Catholic churches in Setúbal. It is truly a structure of Catholics' faith in Jesus. Unluckily for my visit, it was under renovation. I just looked at it and appreciated from behind the fence. Even the museum was closed. All the paintings were on display in a gallery along Luisa Todi Avenue. By the end of the year, it will reopen and it will be better than ever.

    Die Kirche Igreja de Jesus ist das bedeutendste Bauwerk in Setúbal. 1490 vom berühmten Architekten Diogo de Boitaca erbaut ist es ein Meisterwerk gotisch-manuelistischer Architektur. Ein absolutes Highlight.

    I visited when the Convento had a concert. The convento has amazing acoustic sound. The ambience was great!

    Kirche etc. war aufgrund eines Konzerts nicht zugänglich. Wäre ich darauf konkret hingewiesen worden, hätte ich mir für die 3€ Eintritt besser Castanhas genehmigt;-(

    The church is free and deserves a visit. But the convent and its museum are not worth paying 3,20 euros fee for the entry ticket. Avoid.

    Unfortunately it was under construction during my visit. I am sure it is quite a unique building but I couldn't even get close!

    Is a small monastery, the most interesting is the church with twisted columns.
