    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.
