No holiday in Jersey is complete without a visit to the War Tunnels to learn about and experience one of the most difficult periods in the Island’s history.

The story of the German Occupation of Jersey is as compelling as it is strange to think that this small area of Britain was Occupied by the Nazis and forced to fly the Swastika for five dark years.

The Jersey War Tunnels are no ordinary museum, they are an unforgettable experience.

Dug deep into the hillside within St Peter’s Valley, the Tunnels were originally intended to be a barracks and ammunition store for the occupying forces. Today they tell the story of the Occupation, looking at how all sides coped under such extreme conditions and examining the daily dilemmas that were faced by island residents and the authorities, whether Jersey, British or German.

Outside the Tunnels, you can enjoy quiet moments in the Garden of Reflection or a woodland walk along the historic War Trail.

Refresh yourself in the gorgeous surroundings of our bar and Café or satisfy your sweet-toothed cravings in our unique sweet shop. If you’d like to learn more about the Occupation of the Channel Islands, our shop has an extensive range of books that look at all aspects of the period.
