The grand opening of the Donegal Sporting Heroes Exhibition and Ulster Sports Museum took place at the Donegal County Museum on Friday last.

The two exhibitions celebrate sporting heroes from Donegal and Ulster. Visitors can see sporting memorabilia, photographs and information boards charting the rise of legendary sports stars.

The exhibitions cover a wide range of sporting fields: from All Ireland GAA winners to World Champion Tug of War teams.

It is hoped that the displays will inspire a new generation of sporting heroes.
