Look for the yellow phone booth on St. Anne’s High Street and head through the adjacent archway to visit this great little volunteer-run museum. Entry is £5, which is a bargain considering the amount of interesting stuff on display, and the extra details one can obtain from the friendly staff member on duty. There are articles and information on all eras in Alderney’s history, but one can certainly sense how significant the WW2 German occupation is to the islanders. Recommended.
A very cool little museum to visit. I didn't know much of the history of the island and it's German invasion before visiting and it's got a such fascinating story. Doesn't take too long to go round, but we'll worth the visit.
Lovely local museum, small but plenty to see and read about the island
For its size this local museum is well worth a visit for a very interesting collection of local artifacts dating from the bronze age up to the recent history of Alderney including the occupation by Nazi Germany during World War ll. Allow at least an hour to do the place justice and do not miss the larger artifacts outside. As the Romans inhabited Alderney during their pomp surely you can with all the advantages of the 21st Century.
Such a great little museum. Loads of war memorabilia
