Manx Museum, National museum in Douglas, Isle of Man.

The Manx Museum, known in Manx as Thie Tashtee Vannin, is the national museum of the Isle of Man, run by Manx National Heritage, whose headquarters it houses. It occupies part of the original Noble's Hospital building on Crellin's Hill in Douglas, a site bequeathed by Rebecca Noble in 1885. Its galleries trace 10,000 years of island history, from the Stone Age to the modern era, alongside natural history collections.

The museum was established in 1922 within a former hospital building and was authorized by legislation from 1886 aimed at protecting island heritage. Its creation reflected a commitment to preserving local history and traditions for future generations.

The museum's name in Manx is Thie Tashtee Vannin. Every summer it mounts an exhibition on the Isle of Man Tourist Trophy motorcycle races, and recent shows have covered Manx experiences in World War I and the work of British artist William Hoggatt. In 2008 the book Practical Manx by Jennifer Kewley Draskau was launched here.

The museum is open daily and has limited parking on site. A shop and café are in the building, and the National Art Gallery and the Manx National Library and Archives are on the same site. The museum sits on Crellin's Hill in Douglas.

The museum documents the Tynwald, one of the world's oldest continuously functioning parliaments. This ancient governing body has shaped political life on the island for more than a thousand years.
