Von unserer naturbelassenen Landschaft bis hin zu liebevoll gepflegten Gärten. Jersey hat eine Flora, die sogar jemanden mit einem „grünem Daumen“ neidisch machen kann.
The Jersey Wetland Centre.
Ein anderes Naturschutzprojekt, das vom National Trust for Jersey fürsorglich betreut wird, ist das Feuchtgebiet von St. Ouen‘s. In dem Vogel- und Landschaftsschutzgebiet der St. Ouen’s Bay, können Vogelbeobachter und wissbegierige Besucher viele spannende Informationen über die heimische Vogel-, Tier- und Pflanzenwelt erfahren. Das Areal ist das größte Gebiet mit natürlichem Süßwasservorkommen der Insel. Hier können Sie unter anderem verschiedene Entenarten, Gänse, Kiebitze, Falken und Schleiereulen beobachten.
Fishermen’s Chapel
On the site of a small 6th century monastic church, sits the Fishermen's Chapel. Built in the 11th-12th century by the Bishop of Coutances, this original timber building was rebuilt in stone. For almost 300 years, it remained a single cell building, til the 14th century, when it was appropriated as a chantry and burial place for a prominent family.
La Pouquelaye de Faldouet
Built around 6,000 years ago, La Pouquelaye de Faldouet is a Neolithic passage grave that leads onto a unique double chamber. Visit the atmospheric site to see the main chamber and the small stone cists, or boxes that surround it and be wowed by the massive 24-ton capstone covering the end chamber.
La Mare Wine Estate
La Mare Wine Estate is a hidden gem nestled amidst the picturesque parish of St Mary. With free entry and ample parking, the estate extends a warm welcome to all whatever the weather. Join one of their Tour and Tasting Experiences, relax and refuel in the Vineyard Cafe and stock up on Genuine Jersey treats in the Cellar Gift shop.
St. Matthew’s Glass Church
St. Matthew’s started life in the 1840s as a modest chapel of ease, built at the foot of Mont Felard to spare parishioners the long uphill trek to the ancient Parish Church of St. Lawrence. Over the next century, the hamlet of Millbrook flourished, from the coming of the Jersey Railway to the age when planes landed on St. Aubin’s Bay.
