JH Members - Life after Liberation: The Road to Recovery Exhibition Preview
Jersey Museum - second floor exhibition gallery The Weighbridge JE2 3NG St Helier
Details
To mark the 80th anniversary of Liberation, this new exhibition examines the many challenges Jersey faced following its release from five long years of German Occupation. After the celebrations are over, how do you manage the transition from military rule to civilian administration? How do you unite a population divided by loss, separation, and suspicions of collaboration? And how do you return the Island to prosperity after five years of economic isolation and mounting war debts?
The exhibition explores the years following Liberation, both the challenges and opportunities, and traces the Island's long road to recovery. It also considers how we have remembered Liberation as the years have passed and asks what we can learn from this experience.
