I am not a big fan of war memorials as I tend to find they are tacky tourist traps and don't give you a real feel for what actually happened but the War Tunnels are just fantastic.

Quite interesting but still needing to fill out a bit a couple of very busy floors and a couple of relatively empty ones. Worth a visit if using the Jersey Pass for free entry.

Would have liked more time to look around. Very informative museum showing different aspects of Jersey life and history of all kinds. Good value. Pleasant staff. Especially of interest to visitors having a family interest in Jersey which they are exploring.

We loved the explanations and questions about "what should I do if I was there?" We dont like the staff at all because I think they don't like French people...

The museum is linked to a three storey house, with period rooms on show. The museum showcases the history of the island and there are regular special exhibitions. In 2012 a huge painting of the 1781 Battle of Jersey is on loan, and the exhibition is linked to that - excellent
