Next month will see the fifteenth year of Manx National Heritage’s ‘Heritage Open Days’.
The open days take place over two consecutive weekends from October 4 to 6 and October 11 to 13.
To take part in the festival, organisations, individuals and groups provide free public access to buildings, landscapes and displays.
Some buildings have been opened-up for the first time and some events provide new insights into the historic environment via guides and exhibitions.
The events take place all over the Island and have inspired people to embrace the heritage on their doorstep.
The entire festival is free to attend.
Heritage Open Days
Connie Lovel, Executive Director of Manx National Heritage said: “Heritage Open Days has become embedded in our annual programme and we know many people look forward to it.
“The event originally started on the Island with the idea of opening places that were normally hidden from view or difficult to access.
“Fifteen years on, it has become a celebration of the Island’s built and natural heritage, and the many aspects of Manx culture.”
