The nondenominational [[St Tugual's Chapel]] dates to the 11th century, but it is believed that there was a place of worship on Herm as far back as the 6th century, although it has not been confirmed whether the chapel was founded by [[St Tugual]] himself or his followers at a later date.<ref name="BBC0510">{{cite news|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/local/guernsey/hi/people_and_places/religion_and_ethics/newsid_8695000/8695672.stm|title=1,400 years of religious history in Herm's chapel |publisher=BBC|date=21 May 2010|access-date=8 February 2014}}</ref> The current building is Norman and appears to have been a monastery during medieval times.

===Walking around Herm===
The distance around the perimeter of the island is {{cvt|6.3|km|1}} and walking it takes about two hours. If one cuts across the common the distance is {{cvt|4.5|km|1}} and takes about an hour and a half. One can walk from the harbour to Rosaire Steps in about seven minutes. The walk from the harbour to Shell Beach takes about 20 minutes and from the harbour to Belvoir Bay it takes about 15 minutes. One can also walk in between Belvoir Bay and Shell Beach along the rocky eastern coast of the island. Beginning at the rock pools at Belvoir Bay's northern end, the route passes below the round-island path, and the walk takes about 20 minutes but does not follow a marked path.

Film of walking around Herm in 1948 is held by the [[Cinema Museum (London)|Cinema Museum]] in London Ref HM0364 <ref>{{Cite web|title=Cinema Museum Home Movie Database.xlsx|url=https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1OJqSWnOFAn6RJ24jtwb21Z4Hv5svJjbp/edit?usp=embed_facebook|access-date=2021-12-25|website=Google Docs|language=en-US}}</ref>
