The Museum will open on Sunday the 16th of May from 10 till 5 and are hoping to re-open 7 days a week very shortly. The display is unrivalled on the Island and is housed in a real German bunker that was once part of Hitlers Atlantic Wall, all of which gives you the feeling of what it was like to live here during the Occupation. Wether you have a passing interest or find our recent history fascinating there is something for all, to see read and hear. The Museum is the work of one man who started collecting at the age of 7 and who is still looking for original items from the time. There are items added every week and there is always something new to be seen even if you have been before. Admission is £5 for adults and £3 for children, which is great value for money. We look forward to welcoming new visitors to the Museum as well as those who return every year for another look around.
