Le Hocq Tower Open Day

The JTGA are delighted to run a series of open days at Le Hocq Tower on the first Sunday of each month throughout 2023 (until Oct). Wander through the tower rooms and imagine the lives of its occupants through the centuries. Learn of its history from the expert Guides who have volunteered their time to allow you access to this historical monument.

Le Hocq Tower has held a commanding position on the south-east coast of the island since its conception in 1778 and subsequent construction. The brainchild of the then Governor, General Sir Henry Seymour Conway, who ordered a series of round towers to be built in 1778, Le Hocq tower has guarded to promontory of Le Hocq, and Le Havre es Fontaines for almost 250 years.

The Tower is owned by the Parish of St. Clement and is leased by Jersey Heritage, and it is with their kind permission that the JTGA are able to offer you these open days. As such, while entry to the Tower is free of charge, we would very much appreciate a donation to Jersey Heritage as every little helps Jersey Heritage maintain and share these wonderful sites with you.
