A landmark World War One exhibition mounted by Manx National Heritage has increased understanding of the Island's role in the conflict - and left a lasting legacy.
That verdict from the organisers of This Terrible Ordeal, which closed on Saturday after more than a year at the Manx Museum.
The show told parallel stories of Manx soldiers' experiences in the Great War and how it changed the Island forever.
The exhibition also outlined the Island's unique role as a wartime internment centre for thousands of foreigners living in Britain.
Kirsty Neate from Manx National Heritage says although the displays have come down, a mass of precious information and memories has been collected:
