One of the most moving and historically significant sites on the island is the Jersey War Tunnels. Built during the German occupation of World War II, these tunnels were constructed by forced laborers and stretch deep underground. Today, the tunnels serve as a museum that tells the story of the occupation, daily life under German rule, and the resilience of Jersey’s residents. Exhibits bring to life personal accounts, artifacts, and interactive experiences that help visitors understand this dark but important chapter of the island’s history. The tunnels are a must-see for anyone interested in European history and provide a powerful reminder of the strength and courage of the island community.
