German Occupation - The Ones Who Stayed Behind
**New tour for 2024**
A walk around our historic town, with stories of the life of islanders who stayed during the German Occupation. Not all of Rosalyne's family could evacuate, and some had to leave Alderney and start a new life in Guernsey with daring consequences, another was the caretaker of Jethou. Real family stories of life during the German Occupation and extracts from family letters.
Please note that this tour can be wheelchair friendly upon request.
