Stonehenge www.stonehenge.co.uk

Stonehenge is the best known pre-historic monument in Europe and the site was added to the UNESCO’s list of World Heritage Sites in 1986.

The methods used and the reasons for the construction of Stonehenge are largely unknown though there are many theories about who built it, when, and for what purpose. Suggestions include use as an ancient Roman temple, a place of worship by Druids or that it was a primitive computer for calculating the dates of eclipses. More recently, archaeologists have suggested that it was a place for prehistoric people’s ancestors, or perhaps a centre of healing.

Stonehenge is a place of pilgrimage for people following pagan and non- pagan beliefs and is the location for annual festivals marking the summer and winter solstices.
