Donegal Castle, located in the heart of Donegal Town in County Donegal, Ireland, is a historic structure with a rich heritage. Originally built in the 15th century by the O'Donnell clan, one of the most powerful Gaelic families in Ireland, the castle served as a stronghold and residence. The castle is renowned for its distinctive architectural features, including its 17th-century Jacobean-style wing, added by Sir Basil Brooke after the castle came under English control.
