The Church of São Julião Foundation is uncertain but has been rebuilt in the Manueline period. After the damage from the earthquake of 1755, remain in Manueline main portal and side and the Bell Tower. Interior decorated with azulejos as is common in Portuguese churches but what I liked the most are the Manueline portals.

Presiding over the square of Bocage, the most central of the city, we find this beautiful church, founded, according to tradition, by the fishermen of Setúbal during the second half of the 13th century. Between 1516 and 1520 was renovated in Manueline style, under the reign of Manuel I. Earthquakes in 1531 and 1755 damaged it seriously, being a deep reconstruction, already in Baroque, at the end of the 18th century, giving the appearance that shows today. The most outstanding feature of this church are the north portal, where we can see part of the little that has been preserved of the Manueline style; the impressive altarpiece, work of Pedro Alexandrino, and interior decoration on tile, from the end of the 18th century, with the theme of the life of San Julian and his spouse, Basilissa. It is a beautiful church, which we must not fail to visit during our visit to the city. The entrance is free. Opening hours are 08.30 to 12.00 and 15.30 to 17.30 Monday to Saturday, and from 10.00 to 12.00 and from 17.30 to 19.00 Sundays.

Igreja muito bonita! Tem Eucarística semanal as 9h. E adoração Eucarística sextas feiras depois da Eucarística. Necessita de obras de restauro em alguns locais da Igreja. Quem puder não deixe de passar aqui para dar o seu contributo para os necessitados que costumam estar aqui a entrada da Igreja.

Presidiendo la Plaza de Bocage, la más céntrica de la ciudad, encontramos esta hermosa iglesia, fundada, según la tradición, por los pescadores de Setúbal durante la segunda mitad del siglo XIII. Entre 1516 y 1520 fue reformada en estilo manuelino, bajo el reinado de Manuel I. Los terremotos de 1531 y 1755 la dañan seriamente, siendo objeto de una profunda reconstrucción, ya en estilo barroco, a finales del siglo XVIII, dándole la fisonomía que nos muestra en la actualidad. Lo más destacable de esta iglesia son el portal norte, donde podemos observar parte de lo poco que se ha conservado del estilo manuelino; el impresionante retablo mayor, obra de Pedro Alexandrino, y la decoración interior en azulejo, de finales del siglo XVIII, con temática de la vida de San Julián y su esposa, Basilisa. Es una preciosa iglesia, que no debemos dejar de visitar durante nuestra visita a la ciudad. La entrada es gratuita. El horario de apertura es de 08.30 a 12.00 y de 15.30 a 17.30 de lunes a sábados, y de 10.00 a 12.00 y de 17.30 a 19.00 los domingos.
