An ancient stone formation

Uncover the secrets of Stonehenge in Wiltshire in southern England. Stand before the infamous pillar stones that have raised more questions than answers since their discovery. 

Constructed around 5,000 years ago, this UNESCO World Heritage Site sparks discussion around the world. With each stone weighing an average of 25 tonnes (25,000 kilograms), you’ll understand why archaeologists continue to speculate how Stonehenge was built. 

Learn more at the on-site museum and explore the Neolithic house replicas that show how people lived in 2,500 BCE. Then, sit back and relax at the café while you enjoy the striking views.

For a special experience, visit during the summer solstice, the longest day of the year. Usually around the 21 June, this is the one night of the year you’re able to stand inside the stone circle. It’s sure to be a truly unforgettable experience. 

It’s likely that in prehistoric times people gathered here to observe the rising and setting positions of the sun each day. During the changing of the seasons, it’s believed that people would conduct rituals for the midsummer and midwinter solstices.

Delve into history and visit Stonehenge for yourself. Let your imagination roam and come up with your own theories for how this structure was formed.
