Our memories from a very special day

We are extremely proud of the Pomme d’Or’s rich history. Originally built in 1837, the Pomme d’Or hotel is part of the fabric of Jersey life. Our position overlooking Liberation Square harks back to 1945, when the Union Jack was raised on the balcony of the hotel, marking the Liberation of Jersey from the German forces.

Liberation Day has since become the Island's (and our Hotel's) most iconic historical moment, celebrated proudly and passionately each year. This year however, we were extremely fortunate to be hosting Royalty.

The Earl and Countess of Wessex were warmly welcomed to the Pomme d’Or Hotel, and took pride of place on the Hotels balcony and cheered by a crowd enthusiastic and passionate Islanders and tourists.

We were fortunate and blessed with warm sunshine all day as crowds enjoyed the joyous celebration of a hard-earned freedom.

We hope you enjoy our short film, which captures the special moments from Liberation 77.
