Castletown, Isle of Man
No visit to the south is complete without a trip to the ancient capital of the Isle of Man – Castletown – which is dominated by the imposing Medieval fortress of Castle Rushen. The castle is one of the best preserved in Europe and was once occupied by the Kings and Lords of Mann.
Located around the picturesque harbour you’ll also find the Old Grammar School, the Nautical Museum, where you can learn about the Island’s maritime history, and Old House of Keys – the previous home of Manx parliament.
