Doagh Famine Village- Co.Donegal- Ireland
The Famine Village tells the story of a family and community living on the edge and surviving, from the Famine of the 1840s to the present time.
Doagh Famine Village, County Donegal
Doagh Famine Village is an outdoor museum that tells the story of life in the area from the Famine back in the 1840s, through the 1900s to the present day.
Different to any other tourist attraction in Ireland, the Famine Village depicts life in Ireland as it was, uncommercialised, interdenominational interspersed with humorous anecdotes of Irish life.
The Famine Village has a wide array of actual size attractions including original dwellings which were still inhabited little more than 20 years ago. Amongst the attractions that are shown and described by your affable host, local man Pat Doherty, are: -
- An Irish Wake
- Rural life, food and cures told in a humorous way
- Orange Hall
- Presbyterian Meeting House
- Mass Rock and Hedge School
- The Republican Safe House
- The Travelling Community

The Famine Village & Derry
On Saturday my roommates and I went on a trip to Derry and to the Doagh Famine Village. This is a short compilation of footage that I took while at these places. The first voice you'll hear is of the tour guide in the Doagh Famine Village. The second is our wonderful tour guide in Derry, Martin McCrossan. The city of Derry is torn apart by conflict in the same way as Belfast and hearing someone speak so plainly and boldly about his own circumstance and view of Northern Ireland was incredibly moving. I pray this place will find peace.
