Frenchpark, historically known as Dungar (Irish: Dún Gar, meaning 'the fort of favour'), is a village in County Roscommon, Ireland on the N5 national primary road. It was the home of Douglas Hyde, the first President of Ireland.

The nearby French Park Estate was until 1952 the ancestral seat of the French family, Barons de Freyne. The estate was sold to the Irish Land Commission in the 1950s and was dismantled by the mid-1970s. A historic smokehouse is one of the few remaining legacies of this period.
