St Michael's Isle

Access to unusual and historic properties, lands and buildings will be granted this autumn.

Manx National Heritage is opening the doors to places which are usually closed off to the public for the fifth year running.

The open days will take place over the first two weekends in October.

There will be a chance to learn more about internment in the First World War and a behind the scenes tour of the national archive at the Manx Museum.

There will be 135 tours over the six days - it's an increase on last year when 2,000 visitors took part in 81 separate tours and events.

All event listings can also be found at manxnationalheritage.im.
