Tucked into the rugged landscape of the Southwest, Glencolmcille is a Gaeltacht village renowned for its wealth of tradition, culture and archaeological artefacts. The Folk Museum is a monument to a remarkable man, Fr. James McDyer, who came to Glencolmcille in 1952 and set about infusing the local people with a spirit of self reliance and pride in their heritage and culture.
The valley is called after St. Colmcille (Columba of Iona) and there seems little doubt that he was there and set up a monastery. The Gaeltacht area of southwest Donegal is famous for its production of high quality tweed and knitwear products. These products are exported to retail outlets throughout the world. Visitors can view production of these at the Glencolmcille Woollen Mill in Malinmore. A demonstration of the art of hand weaving can be seen at the John Molloy factory Shop.
