<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Geschichte">Geschichte</h2></div>
<p>Aus archäologischen Funden erschließt sich, dass die Gegend um Donegal bereits in prähistorischen Zeiten besiedelt war.
Aufzeichnungen zufolge zerstörte der <a href="Irische_Hochk%C3%B6nige" title="Irische Hochkönige">irische Hochkönig</a> Muirchertach Mac Lochlainn 1159 hier eine <a href="Wikinger" title="Wikinger">Wikinger</a>-Festung. Auf die Wikinger-Besiedlung wird auch der Name „Festung der Fremden“ zurückgeführt. In späterer Zeit war in Donegal Sitz des <a href="O%E2%80%99Donell_von_Tyrconell" title="O’Donell von Tyrconell">O’Donnell-Clans</a>, der eine zentrale Rolle in der irischen Geschichte spielte und vom 15. bis zum Anfang des 17. Jahrhunderts, bis zur <a href="Flucht_der_Grafen" title="Flucht der Grafen">Flucht der Grafen</a>, die Hauptopposition gegen die englischen Eroberer repräsentierte. Die Familie O’Donnell gründete im 15. Jahrhundert an der Donegal Bay südlich des Stadtzentrums die franziskanischen Klöster <a href="Kloster_Magherabeg" title="Kloster Magherabeg">Magherabeg</a> und <a href="Kloster_Donegal" title="Kloster Donegal">Donegal</a>.
</p>
<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Verkehr">Verkehr</h2></div>
<p>Ungeachtet seiner geringen Größe und fehlenden administrativen Bedeutung ist Donegal weithin bekannt, da die Stadt von allen Touristen passiert wird, die über <a href="Sligo" title="Sligo">Sligo</a> und <a href="Ballyshannon" title="Ballyshannon">Ballyshannon</a> aus dem irischen Westen ins <a href="County_Donegal" title="County Donegal">County Donegal</a> einreisen. Nach dem Ausbau des Straßensystems in Irland in den 1990er- und 2000er-Jahren fließt der Durchgangsverkehr inzwischen jedoch auf der <a href="Stra%C3%9Fensystem_in_Irland#Nationalstraßen" title="Straßensystem in Irland">N15</a> bzw. <a href="Stra%C3%9Fensystem_in_Irland#Überlandstraßen" title="Straßensystem in Irland">N56</a> an Donegal vorbei, wobei die N56 in Donegal beginnt und als Zirkularroute über <a href="Killybegs" title="Killybegs">Killybegs</a>, <a href="Glenties" title="Glenties">Glenties</a>, <a href="An_Cloch%C3%A1n_Liath" title="An Clochán Liath">Dungloe</a>, <a href="Gweedore" class="mw-redirect" title="Gweedore">Gweedore</a>, <a href="Gortahork" class="mw-redirect" title="Gortahork">Gortahork</a>, <a href="Falcarragh" class="mw-redirect" title="Falcarragh">Falcarragh</a> und <a href="Dunfanaghy" title="Dunfanaghy">Dunfanaghy</a> den Westen und Norden des Countys erschließt und dann über Letterkenny und <a href="Stranorlar" title="Stranorlar">Stranorlar</a> als N15 nach Donegal zurückführt.
</p><p>Über den kleinen <a href="Flughafen_Donegal" title="Flughafen Donegal">Flughafen Donegal</a> bei Dungloe ist das County zweimal täglich von der <a href="Aer_Lingus" title="Aer Lingus">Aer Lingus</a> mit <a href="Flughafen_Dublin" title="Flughafen Dublin">Dublin</a> sowie fünfmal pro Woche von der schottischen <a href="Loganair" title="Loganair">Loganair</a> mit <a href="Flughafen_Glasgow" title="Flughafen Glasgow">Glasgow</a> in <a href="Schottland" title="Schottland">Schottland</a> verbunden (Stand 2018).<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Der Hauptteil des öffentlichen Personenverkehrs wird jedoch wie überall in Irland von <a href="Bus_%C3%89ireann" title="Bus Éireann">Bus Éireann</a> abgewickelt, der Donegal via <a href="Enniskillen" title="Enniskillen">Enniskillen</a> (NI) mit <a href="Dublin" title="Dublin">Dublin</a> und über Letterkenny mit <a href="Derry" title="Derry">Derry</a> in <a href="Nordirland" title="Nordirland">Nordirland</a> sowie via Sligo mit <a href="Galway" title="Galway">Galway</a> im zentralen Westen Irlands verbindet. Zwei kleine Privatunternehmen fahren außerdem (meist einmal täglich) auch Orte im County Donegal an, die Bus Éireann nicht bedient. An den <a href="Schienenverkehr_in_Irland" title="Schienenverkehr in Irland">Schienenverkehr in Irland</a>, der landesweit nur marginale Bedeutung hat, ist Donegal seit 1960 nicht mehr angeschlossen.

Auch große <a href="Einkaufszentrum" title="Einkaufszentrum">Shopping Centres</a> fehlen vor Ort.
