Six projects, including two castles and the station house of the world's first roll-on roll-off ferry, will benefit from the Building Repair Grant scheme.
Ms Fabiani said: "By giving grants to these outstanding historic buildings we are making sure that they will continue to be used. They will provide facilities for businesses and community groups alongside opportunities for traditional skills training and jobs.
