Jersey Heritage Members can explore the historic landmark of the Radio Tower, in a Heritage Lets Open Day, between 3pm and 5pm.

La Tou du Radio has been restored to showcase its unique history, with original features, and given a new life!

This ‘Open Day’ offers JH Members a chance to explore this unique building—whether you're interested in its architecture and history, planning a stay with friends or family, or simply curious to see its development.

Set on a clifftop overlooking Corbière lighthouse on Jersey’s south-west tip, the Radio Tower provides stunning self-catering accommodation over six floors and boasts a jaw-dropping 360-degree view from the lounge. Built during the Second World War by German Occupying Forces, the Tower has been sympathetically restored in a German modernist style.

This is a FREE ‘drop-in’ event, on a first come basis. Please book your free tickets on Eventbrite, so that we have an idea of how many people are coming, here

Please be aware that the Tower has a number of stairs and a narrow spiral staircase at the top to access the living area and the best views.

PARKING: Public parking is available onsite.
BUS ROUTE: 12a and 22
