Strongpoint Corbière
La Corbière, St Brelade 1 hour Verified 2026-06
WWII German strongpoint above La Corbière lighthouse.
The story
The cliffs above La Corbière hide one of the densest concentrations of WWII fortifications on Jersey — observation towers, machine-gun nests and an anti-aircraft battery. CIOS opens key bunkers on selected days; the railway walk passes most of the exterior structures.
What to expect
Dramatic cliff-top WWII fortifications paired with Jersey's most iconic lighthouse view.
Good to know
Tower MP3 (Marine Peilstand 3) is the most recognisable structure here.

Fantastic place to go and see some German bunkers and a light house. You can walk to the light house, but bewere of the tide, it comes in very fast. You can park here for free, not many spaces here.

We managed to get there for dusk on a sunny day. So it was excellent. Quite magical. Good place for photography and see the island. Highly recommended. We got there by bus so it is possible but it does take a while.

First class historical site, amazing work to tell the story of Jersey during the occupation. Thank you to the volunteers engaged at these sites. We'll worth visiting
