Noirmont Point

A headland on the south coast preserving Second World War German works, including the Lorient battery. It offers views over St Aubin's Bay and Elizabeth Castle.

Noirmont Point is a headland jutting into the sea on the western side of St Aubin's Bay. During the Second World War, the German occupying forces built the Lorient Battery here. Its gun emplacements, observation tower and underground shelters remain well preserved. The site is maintained by the Jersey Occupation Society, and the interior is open to visitors on certain summer days. The headland itself is free to visit at all times. Its grassy slopes and footpaths offer views over St Aubin's Bay, Elizabeth Castle and the southern coastline. Noirmont Tower stands on a reef just offshore. It can be reached on foot from St Aubin or by car.
