The origin of the Museu do Trabalho Michel Giacometti lies in the ethnographic collection assembled in 1975 by students of the Student Civic Service, within the scope of the Work and Culture plan, under the supervision of Michel Giacometti and presented at the so-called Museu do Trabalho de Setúbal. In honor of Michel Giacometti and after his death in 1991, the museum was renamed the Michel Giacometti Work Museum, having opened to the public on May 18, 1995.

The Michel Giacometti Work Museum is installed in the building of the former Perienes factory, consisting of five floors and integrated in an old neighborhood of fishermen, salt workers and canning workers.

The museum is predominantly dedicated to industrial heritage and urban crafts linked to commerce, services and the old canning factories and lithographs based in the municipality of Setúbal, also having a collection of agricultural implements (Michel Giacometti) and traditional crafts.

It presents the permanent exhibitions “The Canning Industry (From the auction to the can)”, “Mundo Rural – ethnographic collection Michel Giacometti and Génese do Museum” and “Liberty Grocery store - a heritage to be safeguarded”.
