La Valette Underground Military Museum
Military museum in St Peter Port, Guernsey
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The La Valette Underground Military Museum is a museum located in German tunnels left over from the German occupation of the Channel Islands, and was converted into a museum between December 1987 and August 1988. The museum hosts a collection of artifacts from World War II and from the Guernsey Militia that served in World War I. The tunnels on the site were originally to be used for U-boat fuel storage.[1] The museum also offers a gift shop selling books on the wars and occupation, as well as authentic patches and medals.
