Donegal County Museum develops and cares for a comprehensive collection of original artefacts relating to the history of the county in the areas of archaeology, geology, natural history, social and political history and folklife.
The first floor exhibition charts the history of Donegal from the Stone Age to the Twentieth Century. A series of temporary exhibitions are held in the ground floor gallery throughout the year.
Tá bailiúchán cuimsitheach anso ina bhfuil déantúis a bhaineann le seandálaíocht, geolaíocht, an dúlra, stair pholaitiúil agus saol na tuaithe.
In airde staighre tá taispeántas a léiríonn stair an Chontae ón gClochaois go dtí an céad seo caite. Bíonn taispeántais sealadacha eile ó am go chéile.
