The national museum of the Isle of Man tells the island's story from prehistoric settlement through Viking rule to the TT races, and serves as the flagship of the Manx National Heritage network. Highlights include Viking silver hoards, Manx crosses and a gallery devoted to the island's unique parliamentary history. It is a natural first stop for understanding what makes the island culturally distinct.
