Grève de Lecq Barracks

Designed for the garrison troops stationed on the island at the height of the fear of Napoleonic invasion. Built almost 200 years ago, these are the only surviving barracks in Jersey.

Explore The Barracks wherever you find the doors are open. Feel free to wander around and discover the many different things there are to see. Find information on Jersey's north coast, Greve de Lecq's history, scenes from 19th century military life and the story of the defence of the island. A collection of horse-drawn vehicles and farm implements are on display and local artists exhibit their work. The Barracks are protected by The National Trust for Jersey and is also home to the National Trust for Jersey shop.
