Castelo de Palmela

Palmela is a small but important village located in a great natural elevation. Its geography has attracted almost every form of civilization known in Europe since pre-historic times.

Baia de Setubal

Setubal, set between the Sado’s river estuary, the Arrábida’s Natural Park Mountains, and the Atlantic Ocean, grew up from a typical fisherman’s harbor town into an industrial and metropolitan city.
