World War Two internees to return to IoM
A number of famous names were among those interned on the Isle of Man during World War Two - including German composer Richard Wagner's granddaughter.
Friedland Wagner was placed at Rushen Internment Camp - her granddaughter Dagny Beidler and biographer are travelling here to tell her story this weekend.
Professor Eva Rieger is giving a lecture as part of a festival organised by Rushen Heritage Trust, Culture Vannin and the Isle of Man Arts Council.
Born at the same camp, Professor Rieger is now an expert on Friedland's life.
Friedland's mother was jailed in 1947 for her active support of the Hitler regime -she didn't share that view; wrote an anti-Nazi book and fled to New York.
Organiser Pam Crowe says their histories are intertwined with the Island's past:
Missed opportunity in inmate's care, inquest finds
Seven arrests made as part of King Gaming fraud and money laundering investigation
Motorists urged to avoid Cooil Road following RTC
Probation for man caught with knife at Sea Terminal
Warning after tea towel tumble dryer fire
Calls for Sarah's Law on Isle of Man
