The true story of life in Jersey during the German occupation, as told in the place it happened. Open daily 10-5
(628)

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. 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.

Back of the net! ⚽

Our vintage-style leather footballs are a nod to the days of hand-stitched panels and laced-up balls, and they look brilliant on a shelf or as a gift for the football fan who has everything.

Find them in the Jersey War Tunnels shop, alongside our cushions, T-shirts and gifts. Open daily 10am – 5pm.

A very proud evening for the Jersey War Tunnels team.

It was wonderful to welcome guests to the Tunnels for the premiere of a new film about the Spitfire, while also supporting the Royal British Legion and its Poppy Appeal.

The Tunnels were transformed for the occasion, with hundreds of poppies creating a powerful backdrop for an evening centred on remembrance, history and support for an important cause.

Thank you to everyone who joined us, to our team for making the evening happen and to all those who supported the Royal British Legion.

A special Remembrance Day for one of our own. ❤️

Our very own Mike Billings was proud to take part in today’s Remembrance parade alongside his wife Nikki, a British Army Reserve Chef, and daughter Daisy, a British Army Cadet Instructor.

Joining them were Chelsea Pensioners Jim Rogers and Chris Clark, from the Royal Hospital Chelsea, who also visited the Tunnels during their time in Jersey.

For Mike and his family, it was a truly memorable occasion and a privilege to march alongside Jim and Chris as the Island came together to remember those who served and sacrificed.

A lovely moment to share, and one we’re delighted to celebrate with Mike and his family.

We will remember them. ❤️

Today, we pause to remember.

We remember those who lost their lives, those whose lives were forever changed by war and occupation, and we also remember the courage, endurance and humanity shown in the darkest of circumstances.

Lest we forget.

Earlier this week, we welcomed guests underground for an exclusive screening of Spitfire, a special short film commissioned for our underground theatre and created by the producers of the original Sky documentary.

The evening continued in the cafe, with refreshments and wartime songs around the piano and entertained by Optimistic Voices.

Money raised went to the Royal British Legion, our charity partner, in aid of the Poppy Appeal in Jersey. Thank you to everyone who joined us, what a wonderful evening.

Lest we forget.

We were honoured to welcome Chelsea Pensioners Chris Clark and Jim Rogers from the Royal Hospital Chelsea to Jersey War Tunnels as part of Remembrance Week.

They were joined by Jean-Marie Gavey for a visit to the Tunnels and our Remembrance display, taking time to reflect on the experiences and sacrifices of those whose stories are told here.

It was a privilege to welcome them and share this important part of Jersey’s history.

Forever lost.
Forever changed.
We care. So we remember.

This Remembrance season, we honour those whose courage and sacrifice shaped our island’s history.

Poppy pins and remembrance gifts are available in our Jersey War Tunnels Gift Shop.

ASC were recently delighted to host Lance Trevellyan, owner of Jersey War Tunnels (www.jerseywartunnels.com) and Gillian Duke (Managing Director of CCA Galleries) when they came to visit recently to discover first-hand about Alderney’s heritage and history.

Staying at the Blonde Hedgehog (blondehedgehog.com) they had the opportunity to view the collections at the impressive Alderney Museum (www.alderneymuseum.org) and visit a number of Alderney’s historic sites.

The trip was coordinated by ASC Member Simon Livesey who also brought Lance and Gillian up to the Alderney Shooting Club range where they had the opportunity to try Lord Mountbatten’s service pistol, a fantastic piece of history that is currently on display at the Alderney Museum, along with many other impressive artefacts on loan from Simon.

Lance thoroughly enjoyed his time up at the range and was kind enough to write “I found the whole shooting instruction team to be knowledgeable and enthusiastic, and the whole experience was so unique and very enjoyable. What shone through was the quality of your tuition.”

We think this demonstrates another unique selling point of Alderney and the activities you can access here.
