Hotel de France
Set in the heart of St Helier, Hotel de France is the perfect base from which to explore Jersey - an island rich in heritage, natural beauty and unforgettable experiences.
Jersey’s history and heritage are woven into every corner of the island, shaped by centuries of influence from both Britain and France. From ancient settlements to periods of conflict and occupation, its past has created a rich cultural identity that can still be felt today in its architecture, traditions and landscapes.
Jersey War Tunnels
Jersey War Tunnels offer a powerful insight into the island’s wartime past, bringing to life the experience of occupation during the Second World War. Set within an underground tunnel complex built by German forces, the exhibition reveals stories of hardship, resilience and survival.
