Donegal County Museum

Donegal County Museum is in Letterkenny, County Donegal, and holds collections covering the county’s history, archaeology and social life. Displays draw on objects, photographs and documents to trace how people in Donegal have lived, worked and moved through the centuries.

Alongside the permanent galleries the museum hosts changing exhibitions and events, so there is usually something new for repeat visitors. It makes a good first stop for anyone wanting context before exploring the county’s sites and landscapes, and its central location in Letterkenny means it fits easily into a day in the town.
