Description :
Here at the Donegal's Visitor Resource Centre, you can immerse yourself in the lives of our rural ancestors from Falcarragh and its surrounding region. Falcarragh, one of the last remaining Gaeltacht regions in Donegal is a market town, and is set in the very heart of the Parish of Cloughaneely, which is located in the Northwest of Donegal on the N56 route. Surrounded by breathtaking scenery, magnificent Mountains and laked filled valleys while fringed by the unpolluted seas of the Atlantic. Language, culture, heritage, history and memories of our ancestor's lifestyles are depicted amidst artefacts and exhibits along with the tools used while working the land.
This authentic two-storey building was originally constructed in 1890 as the Falcarragh Police Barracks and used as such until 1920 when it became the Falcarragh Garda Station. Permanent exhibits of the history and culture of the Barracks is displayed within the visitor centre, which adds to the uniqueness and authenticity of the centre.
