Feels more like the interior of a French ocean-liner of the period than a church. You must visit this church if you are interested in classy glass-makers.Here you have the only glass font in the world, striking door panels,ornate coloured Jersey lilies in an alcove, a real treat for the eye. I can't say I loved it as a church; it seemed uninviting, a little chilly . But as a unique Lalique commission for a church. Jersey tourism should make much more of its presence on the island than it does.Wow !
5. Batterie Moltke
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 93 reviews
There are few distinguishing landmarks, but look for the signs at the entrance to the track onto Les Landes Common at the top of the steep hill above L'Etacq. This is a restored section of the army battery 'Moltke' which once sprawled across the headland. On permanent exterior display is one of the original 15.5cm K418(f) French field guns from the battery, initially pushed over the nearby cliffs

This place is interesting for any military enthusiast but it also offers great views of the West Coast of Jersey and other Channel Islands. The Moltke battery is a combination of bunkers and artillery stands for heavy guns - to fully assess its role in the defence system built by the Germans on the west coast of Jersey, you should also visit another strongoint: Corbiere, at the southern tip of the bay. Each of these points had a dozen or so heavy cannons towering over the entire beach between them, as well as own artillery tower to coordinate the fire (an impressive reinforced concrete structure - it's worth going there, as it's only about 15-20 minutes of walk, along the cliff path). And if we add to this numerous bunkers that are located over the long beach, between these points it is not difficult to conclude that abandoning the invasion of the island of Jersey was a good decision that saved the lives of many Allied soldiers, even if the inhabitants were occupied until the very end of the war . Unfortunately, we visited this place after the season, so everything could only be seen from the outside only but it was still a delight for a military lover and an interesting for engineer, because like other bunkers built by the Germans on Jersey, the structures that make up the Moltke battery, they are very solid and will probably remain part of the local landscape for hundreds of years.

8. Strongpoint Corbiere
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 42 reviews
Strongpoint Corbière currently consists of five German WWII Fortifications found at La Corbière Point. Volunteer members attend to the WWII fortifications & although CIOS members, this is not an officially recognised page. The aim is to preserve and restore these structures to how they would have been operationally during the last year of WWII. The site's 5 bunkers are open to the public at select times, being the two 10.5CM coastal defence gun casemates, the M19 Fortress Mortar bunker, the heavy machine gun sechsscharternturm bunker & the Kanalinsel Nr. 514 Personnel Shelter . The aim is to create a 'working atmosphere', not a 'static museum' where some of the equipment is usable & you can even aim the 10.5cm fortress gun or hold & operate deactivated machine guns! Much attention has been paid to the interior fixtures & fittings & the bunkers contain extensive displays showing how the bunkers and weapons operated together with stories about the actual soldiers who served there.

The jagged rocks and picturesque lighthouse make a lovely picture. You can see the causeway under the sea that comprises the drive to the tiny house on the lighthouse rock. To the west the Atlantic waves crash on half submerged rock-fields creating a white-water vista. It's breezy, but breath taking scenery in the autumn sunshine.

Reviewed By AnneDickie - Wimborne Minster, United Kingdom
The Queen's Valley Reservoir formed part of our circular walk starting at Gorey Harbour. There's a small car park at the northerly end of the reservoir and a well maintained gravel path circles the lake. Half way along the trail you reach the southern end of the reservoir, where you can cross the dam and follow the route back on the other side of the water or, as we did, continue down through the lanes back towards Gorey village. There is plenty of shade along the walk and several picnic areas.
