A photo book has been released to commemorate the most recent Liberation Day.

The States of Guernsey said the book captured the "spirit, emotion and community pride" from the 2025 celebration.

Key events and moments include the military parade, cavalcade, the visit of HRH Princess Anne and celebrations in St Peter Port and Saint Pierre du Bois.

Helen Glencross, head of heritage services, said the book marked "a remarkable moment" in Guernsey's history.

She said: "Liberation Day 2025 was a truly unforgettable occasion, captured in so many incredible photographs that reflect the unity and pride of our community.

"This book is our way of honouring that day and ensuring we can continue to celebrate and remember our shared history."

The book is available to purchase from the Visitor Information Centre in Market Square, Castle Cornet and Guernsey Museum at Candie Gardens.

The States said all profits would go directly into the Liberation Day fund to help fund future events.
