Commemorating HM Queen Elizabeth II - Visits to Jersey

The island of Jersey enjoyed a close relationship with Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II throughout her 70 years as monarch. Her Majesty made six official visits to the Channel Islands between 1949 and 2005, saying at her 1978 visit to Jersey’s States Chamber: “I cherish and greatly value the ancient ties that bind together the Crown and people of this island, ties that happily seem to grow ever stronger.”
