Guernsey Castle Cornet,

Post by GD on Sun Mar 09, 2008 4:50 pm

Four museums are housed in this magnificent Castle in the centre of St Peter Port. The Maritime Museum, The Castle Museum, the Royal Guernsey Militia Museum and the 201 Squadron Museum offer insights into Guernsey's sea trading, local and military history.

What isnt there to love about Castle Cornet?

Been numerous times already and will continue to do so.

I think we all harbour an interest in Guernsey's maritime history.

See what I did there?
