On 9 May 2023, Portugal issued a souvenir sheet of one stamp in the Europa 2023 theme “PEACE-the highest value of humanity”. The stamp depicts the 1868 Santa Marta Lighthouse which is located on the southwest coast of Portugal west of Lisbon.

On 26 Feb 2018 Portugal released a set of 4 stamps and a souvenir sheet containing one stamp featuring views of the Tagus River (Rio Tejo). The fourth stamp in the set with a denomination of €0.65 shows the Lisbon Vessel Traffic Control Center in the background. I guess we could call it the Leaning Tower of Lisbon! To the left of the building we can see a red light which is the VTS Algés Pier Head Light.
