In this paper we consider two inverse problems on a closed connected Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$. The first one is a direct analog of the Gel'fand inverse boundary spectral problem. To formulate it, assume that $M$ is divided by a hypersurface $\Sigma$ into two components and we know the eigenvalues $\lambda_j$ of the Laplace operator on $(M,g)$ and also the Cauchy data, on $\Sigma$, of the corresponding eigenfunctions $\phi_j$, i.e. $\phi_j|_{\Sigma},\partial_\nu\phi_j|_{\Sigma}$, where $\nu$ is the normal to $\Sigma$. We prove that these data determine $(M,g)$ uniquely, i.e. up to an isometry. In the second problem we are given much less data, namely, $\lambda_j$ and $\phi_j|_{\Sigma}$ only. However, if $\Sigma$ consists of at least two components, $\Sigma_1, \Sigma_2$, we are still able to determine $(M,g)$ assuming some conditions on $M$ and $\Sigma$. These conditions are formulated in terms of the spectra of the manifolds with boundary obtained by cutting $M$ along $\Sigma_i$, $i=1,2$, and are of a generic nature. We consider also some other inverse problems on $M$ related to the above with data which is easier to obtain from measurements than the spectral data described.
