A county in northwestern Ireland known for its rugged coastline, mountains, and Gaelic-speaking regions. Also refers to a type of tweed fabric traditionally woven in this region.
From Irish Gaelic 'Dún na nGall' meaning 'fort of the foreigners', referring to a Viking stronghold. The name reflects the complex history of Irish-Viking interactions in medieval Ireland.
Donegal tweed became internationally famous for its distinctive nubby texture and earthy colors that perfectly capture the wild Irish landscape. The county is also home to some of Europe's highest sea cliffs at Slieve League, which dwarf even the more famous Cliffs of Moher.
