Step into the Jèrriais Room, an immersive space where the sounds of Jersey’s native language surround you. Listen to a specially commissioned soundscape, hear voices from the past, and explore personal stories of language and identity. Engage with interactive experiences that invite you to reflect on what you would take with you if you had to leave home—and what happens to language and identity when a native tongue is lost. Celebrate the Island’s cultural heritage and the enduring legacy of Jèrriais.
