Museums

There are so many good museums in Jersey we thought they ought to be put in their own section.

The main protector of Jersey's heritage is the Jersey Heritage Trust who look after the main sites of historical importance, often in association with the Societe Jersiase.

There is however a variety of other museums, mostly privately run, that cater for other, perhaps more specialised interests. These include relics from the German Occupation during the Second World War and the less imposing but equally interesting Steam and Battle of Flowers museums.

For more information about the History and Heritage of Jersey see our Living in Jersey section.
