Glencolmcille Folk Village Museum, also known as Fr McDyer's Folk Village, is a charming cluster of thatched-roof cottages overlooking Glen Bay Beach in County Donegal. Each cottage is a replica of a dwelling from the 18th, 19th, or 20th century, showcasing the daily life of rural Ireland. Visitors can explore the cozy interiors filled with period furniture and artifacts, learn about traditional crafts and music, and enjoy a warm bowl of soup in the Tearoom. With guided tours, a craft shop, and events like tapestry workshops and music sessions, this living-history museum offers a delightful glimpse into the past while surrounded by the stunning beauty of Glencolmcille.
