Setúbal - Igreja de Jesús

The Igreja de Jesús is in the west of the old town. It was Portugal's first Manueline church, begun in 1490/91 under the direction of Diogo de Boytaca, who went on to be architect of the convents at Batalha and Belém. Inside the relatively unadorned exterior can be seen impressive stellar vaulting in the choir and azulejo scenes from the life of the Virgin.
