Archaeology Festival: Meet the Collections + Lab
Come and 'Meet the Collections' and see some of the archaeology treasures and recent finds that are not usually on display at one of Jersey Heritage’s sites. Many of the older items in the Collections originate from the Société Jersiaise and were collected over the Société’s 150-year history and which are now in the safe keeping of Jersey Heritage.

More Information
Jersey Heritage’s collections team will be selecting some of their favourite objects to show you and will be on hand to tell you about these objects, where they came from and what they can tell us about our Island’s history. The Museum Conservation Lab will also be open allowing visitors to see some conservation work in practice.
Do bring along any finds that you have made in your gardens or whilst out walking so that our “Ice Age Island” team, who will be present, can help identify and record them!
