Nine miles by five miles. That’s the size of Jersey. It’s not a lot, you may think. You’d be wrong. The island is a mix of English reserve and French savoir-faire, cosmopolitan harbor and timeless hidden valleys, continental flair and scenes that are reassuringly familiar. Its diverse attractions and natural beauty offer something for everyone and make Jersey an ideal destination for short breaks, romantic weekends, active experiences, foodie getaways and family summer holidays.

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.
