Architecture Section Meeting

The Société Jersiaise is a registered Jersey Charity. Our mission is to produce and facilitate research of the Island’s history, culture, language and environment; and to share this knowledge through education and publication with the widest possible audience for the benefit of our island community.

The Architecture Section was established in January 2022, encouraged by the popularity of St Helier town walks with an architectural theme that had been held in 2021.The aims of the Section are twofold – the first is to research and substantially expand our knowledge and understanding of distinctive, diverse and high-quality architecture produced in the Island since the mid-19th century, as well as the architects and clients who created them. The second aim is to publish and promote this work through lectures, walks, Bulletin articles, booklets, exhibitions, social media channels and other means.
