Greencastle (Irish: An Caisleán Nua, meaning 'New Castle') is a commercial fishing port located in the north-east of the Inishowen Peninsula on the north coast of County Donegal in Ulster, Ireland. The port is on the western shores of Lough Foyle. Nowadays, given the decline in the fishing industry, it resembles more closely a 'typical' Donegal holiday village. It is located a few miles from Moville and is about 20 miles from Derry. Greencastle's name comes from the castle in the area, which, in turn, may have derived its name from the green freestone with which it was built. The castle, originally built by the Anglo-Normans, is also known as Northburgh Castle.

  • Greencastle (gaelico irlandese: An Caisleán Nua) è un importante porto situato sulla parte nord-orientale di Inishowen, nel Donegal, Repubblica d'Irlanda, ed è situato a pochi chilometri da Moville e a breve distanza da Derry. Il nome del posto deriverebbe dal limitrofo ed omonimo forte, costruito in pietra verde. Al giorno d'oggi, dato il declino dell'industria della pesca, assomiglia più ad un villaggio vacanze tipico della contea di Donegal. (it)
