I was told.If you go to Jersey you must visit the War Tunnels. A museum that you will never forget. All about the island`s life during German occupation.
Today, the War Tunnels tell the compelling story of life in Jersey under occupation and feature a series of thought-provoking galleries looking at the diverse experiences of all those who live through it, whether Jersey, British or German. Outside the Tunnels you can enjoy a quiet moment in the Garden of Reflection or a woodland walk along the historic War Trail.

Formerly known as Höhlgangsanlage 8 (Ho8), the tunnel complex is dug deep into the hillside within St Peter’s Valley and was originally intended to be a barracks and ammunition store for the occupying forces. It took nearly three and a half years to build, with the work being carried out by forced and slave labourers who were brought to the Island from all over Europe
