The Alderney museum was started in 1966 and displays a record of Alderney's fascinating history. The museum's collections are concerned exclusively with Alderney, and cover geology, archaeology, the natural environment and social history
The museum is open daily April to October and also has a wide selection of books and guides for sale.

The Alderney Wildlife Trust aims to promote the conservation and protection of Alderney's terrestrial and marine wildlife and associated habitats, also to promote the conservation and protection of places of scientific interest, amenity value or natural beauty. Since its launch in 2002 the Trust now actively manages around 20k of public footpath and over 120ha of the island’s countryside as nature reserve, in addition to the Island’s Internationally Imprtant Wetland (Ramsar) site which includes many of Alderney’s key species such as Northern Gannet and Puffin. The Trust also founded the Island’s Bird Observatory in 2016 which collects detailed records of the momentous European migration which passes the island each year.
When visiting the Island you can find out more about the Trust’s regular walks and activities programme from bat and hedgehog walks, to wildlife kayaking, boat trips and historic tours at the Wildlife Centre in the centre of the island’s only town, St. Anne
(www.alderneywildlife.org/whats’on). The volunteers and staff at the centre can also help you plan your visit, pointing out interesting and often missed sites and providing access to unusual buildings such as the ominous WWII naval tower known as the Odeon

The home of a Privateer!
The lePassage building has a colourfull background During these long wars with France letters of marque and reprisal were issued by the English Crown as a license, authorising the Privateer to attack and capture vessels of a nation at war with the Crown.
This lucrative enterprise gave rise to riches in all of the Channel Islands
So who knows... there might still be a treasure dug down in the back of our Sculpture Gardens
