Free entry. But if you choose not to pay you are encouraged to buy the catalogue for £5 or spend in the souvenir shop. When I visited I thought it was for half and hour but ended up being more than two hours. Plus I will need to go back. This is because the museum traces the Isle of Man's history from 4000BC hunters and gatherers through to bronze and iron ages, Celt arrival, Vikings, Romans and transition to British crown. Far more information than expected. Plus there is a family history and local history annex library and an art gallery including local celtic-inspired pieces. Then go downstairs for the TT motorcycle racing museum. Also a souvenir shop. Although no cafe unfortunately which is precisely what most visitors will want after walking around and getting lost. Well I did anyhow. But not to be.
