Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 74 reviews
Consecrated in 1850 and built to the design of Sir George Gilbert Scott, this church is one of the finest examples of Victorian architecture in the Channel Islands.

All that has been written already about St. Anne's Church is accurate; a gorgeous building, internally and externally, and a well kept churchyard containing the grave of John Arlott, the wonderful cricket commentator whose voice evokes, for me anyway, the long hot summer of 1976 when I was a teenager whose only interest was opening the bowling for England...Ian Botham visited the island many times, and occasionally still pops down to the grave to open a bottle of red wine with him!

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 !

This chapel is a really special place for all my family. It never fails to be peaceful and the age-old wall paintings are very beautiful. Even as a nonreligious person like me this is definitely worth a visit.

A definite sight to see! Absolutely gorgeous and incredibly neat. There's also a gift shop and restrooms available and the bus stop is right out front! Perfect to combine with the Rocquette Cider tour and a visit to the German Underground Hospital, as they are all within walking distance.

This statue commemorates the liberation of Jersey on 9 May 1945, following nearly 5 years of Nazi occupation. It shows a group of islanders raising the British flag to celebrate the restoration of their freedom. The statue faces the Pomme d'Or Hotel, from whose balcony the Union Flag was flown on the day of liberation. It is a moving sculpture which reminds the visitor of this dark period in Jersey's history, which still looms large in the island's collective story and sense of identity. Although Jersey is proudly British, the sobering fact of the Occupation means that you do not encounter the sort of confected war "nostalgia" so often encountered in the UK.
