Guernsey Museum and Art Gallery

Guernsey



The museum opened in 1978 and it was purpose built as a post-war museum and one of very few in Britain.

A permanent exhibition tells the 'Story of Guernsey' detailing the archaeology, history and story of the Islands and their inhabitants.

A changing programme of temporary exhibitions runs throughout the year.

A gift shop sells a range of publications and souvenirs.

Café Victoria sells light lunches, afternoon teas, snacks and a selection of FairTrade Teas and coffees. Come and enjoy wonderful views over Candie Gardens and the harbour.

Opens daily 10.00-17.00hrs from February to December.

Admission Charges: Adult - £5.75; Senior Citizen - £4.75; Child - £1.50; Child under 7 - Free
