Loule is located in the central part of Faro District. This small town was founded in 1266.

A wonderful view of the city opens from its walls. The city art gallery is located in the monastery of the Holy Spirit. Attention is drawn to the Church of St. Clement, which is located in the middle of a small square. The Church of Mercy attracts with an interesting portal in the Manueline style, and in the Church of Our Lady of Conceisano you can admire the Baroque altar by Miguel Nobri.
