Brimful of history, beautifully reclaimed this is a beautiful castle and very easily accessible in Donegal town. Entry fee is only 4euro per person. Slip back into the past by just walking through the entrance hall.

A friend and I stopped in Donegal and made it our base while exploring the area and taking a day trip up to the Giants Causeway. While we were there we toured Donegal Castle. We went in October 2007- so I can't say I remember much of the history behind Donegal Castle. What did stick with me though, was what a large and beautiful structure is was. The fireplace in the big dining area was really neat. It had all sorts of things carved into it, including a few (I think) different coats of arms.

Donegal Castle is included in Heritage Ireland cards, so stopping here on a rainy afternoon in town was a no-brainer. It's a great location--about 30 seconds walk from the town square, and there is a super little pub right across the street. The staff were friendly and information panels gave a pretty good description of what life was like in the castle.

Fascinating tour of Irish history, and very good value. Surrounded by pubs these days, which is handy after climbing several flights of stairs!
