However, it is called Grosnez Castle. It has a magnificent view over the cliffs.

Hiking

Grosnez Castle towers over the northwestern tip of Jersey, above a bluff. This castle was built in the 14th century and had a protective function, especially during the Hundred Years War. Unfortunately, only the gate with surrounding walls and house foundations are preserved inside. If you want to experience the steep coast very close, just go down the steps to the beacon.

The castle ruin was built in the 14th century at this strategically favorable location and had a pronounced protective function during the 100-year war. Too bad that today essentially only the gateway with surrounding walls is preserved.
