Elizabeth Castle (occasionally misspelled as Elisabeth Castle, even in English publications) is an island fortress built from the 16th century onwards, covering approximately 24 hectares on a tidal island off Saint Helier, the largest town on the Channel Island of Jersey. It was used until 1923 and was further fortified during the German occupation of Jersey from 1940 to 1945. Today, Elizabeth Castle is a tourist attraction.

A 15 minute film shows the history of Elisabeth Castle in a very pleasant way.

Interesting, although Mont Orgueill is more exciting. We liked the actors, dressed in witty and authentic clothes, demonstrating the wear and tear of a musket and then a cannon with a shot.
